It certainly doesn't look right. Does it look the same on both sides? Drive it around on some bumpy roads for a few days, they may settle in. Confirm with Stuart that he sent you the right springs. There's 2 or 3 different sets depending on the model.

However, Watson6505 didn't clear even after he cut his studs down for 15mm spacers and Cyclone wheels (see above post).

Thanks, I'll try that. The drop is consistent on both sides and the front is just shy of 1.5" while the rear is closer to 1".

Out of hibernation
Well, even without the spacers installed I went ahead and changed over from 19" propellors with PZeros to 20" powder coated cyclones and MPSS. I wish I had a little more light in the pictures, but you should get the idea. I drove home with the radio off and felt/heard a tiny clank coming from the rear like something was rolling around in the trunk (but there isn't). I don't think it has anything to do with the tire, but its a little concerning...maybe brake pad movement that I never really listened for before.
Might sell the propellors, haven't decided yet...in the middle of lifting my 4runner and getting new tires so maybe these wheels can fund that.

Hello, has anybody that ordered the 17mm spacers decided to not use their spacers?
I need two 17mm black spacers, since i had to donate two of my spacers to my wife's jaguar.
I bought her her new wheels and the rear wheel was rubbing on the inside wheel well so i used two spacers to push them out.
Now i need two more for my f-type. anybody have two black 15mm or 17mm spacers not being used?
If not i will have Lenny make me two more. i course i will pay for them.
Thanks and Happy Motoring,
Mitchell

Other than not installing adapters at all? There was talk a while back, maybe in this thread, of how thick a spacer could be used that was an actual spacer, not an adapter. There's no guarantee that the 17mm spacers will rub, as it depends on springs and wheels/tires.

+1. 17mm will likely work as long as you don’t upsize the tires to the 305s in back. However, with some of the OEM wheels you may still have to do a bit of stud grinding.

Since I bought new 21" wheels with custom offsets, I am selling my 17mm spacers I purchased in this group buy.
