Yes... are they worth it... not really its better off to get a rim made for the car 5x100 and with the correct offset.

Performace... How do you think you'd get performance out of them? THats the same as putting Vynal on a honda and getting 100Hp more out of it..

BUt i think i have come to a conclusion here.....

Then you want Hubcentric rings... Spacers make it possible to go with a larger/smaller offset.

I have an extra set for 57.1mm inner ( j-car) and 67mm outside...

ya spacers can also make you more prone to snapin a stud - because it puts the power farther away from the hub.
