Need to "search" please...

There are Fifty billion threads all over about this topic.

I feel in a good mood...So for Spacers I suggest Ichiba V2 spacers.

I personally had issues with a pair of 15mm Ichiba v2's another member here had issues with one of his 20mm v2's. They come with very small, cheap, soft nuts for mounting them to your hub. I don't recommend.

Go with Eibach Pro-Spacers. I had a pair of them and they knock the socks off the Ichibas. They are lighter and come with better quality hardware. They are also priced similarly...if not cheaper!

With the stock wheels on the tC2, 15mm is enough to flush the front and 20-25mm will have you sitting nice in the rear. The spacer specs need to be:
- 114.3 x 5 bolt pattern
- 60mm hub bore

If you get aftermarket wheels, try to get a wheel width and offset combination so that you can avoid using spacers. They add an extra few pounds to each wheel you use them on...depending on spacer size.

TeeCizzle is right though...plenty of info already floating around here regarding wheels and spacers.
