Default 1.25" spacers on Franks Monte! :O lol

so i got bought some spacers from a friend, they're 1.25" so i threw em on and didnt like em :p

take a look





Made the monte look goofy so i had to take them off
they appear much wider in person though. the car ran perfect with em, even on the highway. so now im going to sell them anybody want em?

another question.....
when i first installed my 17's i had some 5/16 spacers already on with my 16's so i kept em. today after removing the big spacers i tried my 17's with no spacers and the tires rub the struts i can barely fit a piece of paper in between them? anyone know why?? i have 235/55/17's so it shouldn't rub should it? anyways i kept my 5/16 spacers on and they have roughly 1/4" of clearance so its all good for now until i get some new wheels.... sooner or later.... lol let me know what ya'll think

here's a pic with no spacers.....

unfortunately not
i already removed them and have em craigslist

i like the way they brought the tires out, just didnt look right with these wheels for some reason the good is that i didnt have to trim my studs to fit the wheels properly
