I just looked over ur pictures again and I have to say your car rocks! I'm glad the spacers turn out awesome for you. I'm going to throw 20mm on tomorrow to push the rear even more out. I'm just not satisfied yet hahaha

There is 25mm too but I cheated with 20mm. Buy a set of 5mm and 15mm and slap them together. You still have enough hub ring length and studs length. It's basically samething as installing just 5mm but ur putting it on the 15mm spacer.

I use to use ice and it worked well but once i switched over to Meguiar i never looked back. With a black car it really looks well after a wash but maintaining it is the hard part. Im sure you could get your super shiny
