How are those rear bilsteins doing with that spacer? I thought they were only compatible with up to 1" rear lift

They're good. I wouldn't go past a 1.75in spacer though. Its just going to start maxing out strut.

I ordered -12 but they sent 18... I'm debating keeping them or sending them back.

Edit, definitely no debate. I'm sending them back. I can't deal with 18mm offset anymore.

How are you liking your Spyder headlights? What bulbs are you running?

Spiders are amazing appearance wise... I put 5000k hid in them and they're holding up nicely. As far as the high beams I used halogen and tapped into the stock wiring harness.

Im glad you decided to send them back. I think you would have ended up regretting not getting exactly what you wanted.
