It is like anything Matt, personal preference. Some people use retreads with no issues others would never! Some like loud exhaust others hate it! And everyone has good reasons for there view, just gotta decide for yourself!

Most people that are "against" spacers either had a bad experience with the cheap cast ones, or they know someone that had a bad experience with cast ones. I have yet to see someone describe a failure do to a billet spacer.

The only people I hear of that don't like spacers have had catastrophic failures with them. Might be worth the extra money to not take the chance! Maybe buy a set of steel wheels that look good with the right offset? Might be cheaper than buying a set of good spacers
