Pic request. Spacer related

Anyone got a pic of a stock height car with wheel spacers that push it out flush?

Apex studs. I don't recommend them. They rusted inside in the hex head in less than 1 month. I told them about it and it took them two weeks of back and forth to tell me its normal and they won't do anything about it. Maybe their bullet nose studs are better.

Pics or its not true lol

Do you know why those tire marks happen? I plan on lowering so I'm guessing the rubbing will get worse. I think my alignment is wack so I was hopping getting that done will fix it.

It's rubbing against the wheel housing. (black plastic above tire.) That's the issue for me. I have 265/35/19" 295/35/19" stock ZCP height. Take out your wheel and inspect the wheel housing for rub marks. You will find where it hits. My main issue with it is that my rear tire when hitting a bump hits the part where the rear bumper and side panel wheel arch connect. Kind of pointy but not for me anymore because my tires shaved it off.

That's what I thought. I was hoping the liner will trim down but it hasn't yet. Might just sand it down lol.

10mm square, stock ZCP suspension/tire sizes. I like it, just enough for me with zero rub at full compression lock to lock.
