25mm spacers...

Hey guys.. It's been a while. I want to throw my 20mm spacers on my 07 fit to the front wheels and get 25mm for the rears. The 20mm look great in the back but they just need a little more umph. I want some serious agressiveness. I have a set of 38mm offset aftermarket wheels and skunk2 lowering springs. Any advice? The spacers are the plug and play ones from ebay where the extended studs are pressed and they are hubcentric. Thanks for your comments.

P.S. Pics would be great if you guys have any....

With the 20mm spacers in fron the fimal offfset for the front wheels will be 18 and the rear with the 25mm spacers will be 13. You will need to roll/pull the fenders. Rear fender mounting tabs have to be cut off and zip ties use instead.
Becareful with those ebay spacers cause some are decent and others will fall apart in use.

Thanks man... i figured i would have to roll the fenders. Looking into that right now before I do anything else. Any idea what the final look will be? I hope it will give me the aggressiveness I am looking for but at a minimum not exaggerated..

Your fenders will not only have to be roll but pull to get some extra space to clear the wheels. The mounting tabs you need to cut off are the rear bumper mounting tabs that attach the bumper to the quarter panels.
This will be a flush look and maybe hellaflush. All depend on how much the fenders are pull tire size, tire stretching if any, and wheel size.
