Pics are coming I promise lol. I recently acquired a piece of jewelry so instead of thinking about car/mods I have been kind of planning for something else. These wheels and tires will be my last big mod of the summer. Next year I want to do more carbon fiber, a spoiler, and maybe a bbk. I hope santa is good to me this year
Congrats to you and the guy who gave it to ya :banana:

After seeing the major improvement of those wheel spacers idk if DDM is the best choice, I made an observation that your motortech 19mm spacers = 3/4" whereas DDMs are 3/16" or 4.7625mm. This is a drastically noticeable difference not only in numbers also in appearance.
Did you decide to go with those to fit your rim / tire combo or some other reason ?

How long are the stock wheel lugs? May want to consider extended wheel studs if you're gonna run a spacer that large.

I needed adapters for the new bolt pattern. My bbs wheels are 5x112 and stock is 5x105. Then motorsport recommended 18 or 19mm so the studs could fit in the recessed holes in the back of wheels without cutting them. I kept the ddm spacers for the winter when I go back to the RS wheels because anything is better than stock. But the difference in cost is big too. Painted ddm spacers are $120 vs $315 for motorsport adapters. But I love the 19mm it is worth it!

Wheel Adapters, Wheel Spacers, Hub Rings, and much more! | Motorsport Tech
They make the adapters custom order. I usually emailed them here: motorsportjr@gmail.com
I was quoted $285 free shipping I think.

Feeling lost//Rant
I still love love my sonic but I don't know what to do next. I am on the fence, part of me wants to continue with buying car parts while the other part of me feels like I should trade in for something more practical. Christmas is around the corner and my heart wants the seibon cf hatch. I can even picture myself ordering more parts in the spring and summer. I love my car, I just love cars in general but can I be an adult and have my RS too?

Of course you can be an adult and still drive an RS. I'm 24, have my sonic and have done a lot to it. Drive it 90% of the time. But, I also have something more practical when it comes to driving people or long road trips and construction stuff. My trailblazer. Which is fantastic. You can be an adult where it matters. Like your job, bills, and relationships. But when it comes to your car, you want something that makes you still feel young and alive.

That makes me feel better. Just hard to find a middle ground. Feel like this is my half midlife crisis lol. Turning 25, planning a wedding, and maybe kids someday. I don't want to give up that part of me, cars and my RS. They give me great joy.
