DAMN!! spaced out to perfection...Which kind of spacers are these? Do they bolt on to the hub then you bolt your wheels on the spacers?

Good call bro. Previous owner of mine didn't, and after 100K on the spacers they were insanely difficult to remove.

Your X looks GREAT with the new color on the wheels! Very aggressive!

Looks good, do you notice a handling improvement with the 30mm spacers?

Not sure what Tom will say but adding spacers to the rear is supposed to induce more understeer because of the wider track. I have 30mm spacers too, though with non-oem wheels, and I can't tell the difference.

However, the X is not my daily driver and didn't stay stock very long after we bought it. So, trying to remember how it drove prior to all the mods is difficult!
