Default Check Out These Spacers with Nevis!

Saw this very clean 2010 XKR on Ebay. Unless I'm loosing my mind it definitely has spacers on it as my Nevis don't sit this far out!

This thing would be nasty with a drop! Making want to do spacers again... (little voice talking to me) "Stay the course, you can do it... pick and order the customer wheels..."

It has the best drop of all...the "factory" drop that came with the aero bits on the car.

Have to say, the more I've seen it, I think the car needs spacers more than it needs to be lowered. I was considering doing springs at some point, but the more I look at my car, the less I really think it needs them. It could go down maybe a quarter to a half inch, but I don't think I'd want to go further than that.

I keep telling you, buy some spacers, it will change the car completely!
I promise it will save you buying aftermarket party wheels. These wheels (I feel) already suit the car (as do the older ones on mine).

I hear you. AndtThat is true... To a degree. Decent looking stock wheels make those that want their car to look absolutely menacing cut the corner and end up looking Great with nice stock wheels instead of JUST SICK on the perfect concave or deep lip wheel. It would be so much easier with bootleg stock wheels!

The question is would I be leaving something on the table... Course one could argue that what is left on table isn't worth $4k. But the $4k isn't a sunk cost as I always keep my wheels mint and get nearly what I paid.

I still need to confirm where to get spacers for 2011 XKR and what sizes. It is clear the front needs to come out more than the rear...
