Spacers on stock 19inch wheel setup?

Any one on here running spacers on a stock wheel setup? any pics? i really like the stock wheels i would just like them to stick out some more to make it look more agressive..

any ride/ vibration issues?

Seriously though. In defense of the OP because there are so many threads on this topic, it is hard to find exactly what he is looking for. Pictures. I would cruise the media share section until you find what you are looking for.
I have spacers and have no vibration. Others report vibration. I am using Eibach 15/20mm spacers.
20mm or 25mm all around will give you the best look though.

25mm in the rear will stick out too far with a 275 tire on the pro kit. Tried it on 2 days ago...

Nice to know, but why do you have 275s on a 9 inch wheel?

More traction and looks better IMO.

I have 25mm Spacers on the rear and 15mm on the front and the pro-kit and mine is fine..Looks great too...I mean its close in the rear but not that bad..Eibach only drops it .8 in the rear...Definitely gets better traction and feels wider for sure

Correction. The had 20mm all around, now it's 25mm front, 20mm back.

The tire width will be a factor also as someone else pointed out.

Sorry to get off topic, but wouldn't too much tire actually be detrimental? Murdered you probably have stock rear tire sizes?

Yeah too much tire would be bad, but I don't think 275 is overkill. People run 285,295 and even 305 on the G.
