OK, It have been some time since I last posted pics of my car, since then I have revamped the exuast, re-wired my ignition and got some new sneekers for her.
85 GS RX-7 (DuH)
12A w/stockport
2 MSD 6A Boxes for leading coils
1 HKS Twinpower for trailing coil
Racingbeat intake manafold with 48mm Del'Orto carb
Custom dual equal length 2 1/2" exaust with a 3" x-pipe/muffler
electric fan
Team Loco 16" wheels with 205/40/16 HK Ventus tires
The bolt patern is 4X100 with 3.5 rear spacing 35MM offset
I got adapters/spacers from a scource here in Arizona.

I am however curious on what you did to get the pattern. Is that front and rear?

How do u latch your hood it looks like you removed the latch. Do you have pins, or just let it flap. nice mounting on the holley regulator and pressure gauge. Very nice overall ride. A+

Exactly...here is some hard proof for you...read the text under the pics of the spacers themselves...HKS, and we should all know who they are by now, also markets street spacers...I think this category will probably also fall into the same as the CenterForce clutch failure myth/lie...

Sorry for the slow replys I will be here for a while to answer now.
The adapters are T66 Aircraft aluminum, they weigh in at almost 3 pounds each. 1.25" thickness
A honda has a 3.5" rear spacing
Our cars have a 2.5" rear spacing
They push the new wheels out a quarter of an inch wich worked out perfectly. They have survied for atleast 6 months now with no problem. I race my car often on the track and they survive that and at the drag strip. not to mention the SHITTTTTY streets here in Tucson (pothole city)
My suspection is ground contol perchases with Eibach ERS springs they are 205/lb per inch front and 150 lb/in rear. This is a EXTREMLY stiff setting. but works GREAT FOR DRIFTING. I had cut stock springs for a while and Eibach Pros. but the suspention could not keep up with me, weight trancfer took to long when reversing enushia during the drift.

So that's one real street testimonial in favor of the positive side of spacers...now we need a first person experience of someone who has actually suffered a spacer failure to balance or refute this experience...no "friends" or "I know someone.." or " I heard about" crap...we can all make that kind of stuff up all day...

AIM Industries in Phoenix AZ
$240 for the set
They are huge in the sport truck market open any tuckin magazine and you will see and multipage full color add.
The only recomendation is get the bolt pattern in 4 on 114.3 not 4 on 100
the 4 on 100 puts the new studs very close to the center bore on the spacer.
Don't get me wrong mine are completely safe or I would not condone their usage. It just looks better in 4X114.3 (4x4.5)
