Forgive my ignorance, but are there any negative implications to fitting spacers? Increased tyre wear? More strain on suspension components? Arch rubbing on bumps?
Tyre wear shouldn't be an issue.
Minimal strain on suspension if any as we're not talking super wide 'stance' show scene looks here, just bringing the wheel out to fill the arch a bit.
No arch rubbing if you use sensible size.
Just remember to tell your insurance as it is a modification.
