Anyone using wheels spacers?

Hey guys just searched around and didnt find anything on spacers here other than a couple guys running a 5mm spacer which i think is not worth it.

I just dropped my 4dr on megans and im running 16 enkeis with lower profile tires, so im sitting pretty low, I think these wheels are 7.5" wide but i have to measure once the snow clears, I sit pretty good now. and the car looks good from behind with the wider wheels and tires.

Im looking to space the rears out just for a better look, I dont care that its not functional or that I have a 2.2L, just want to know whats out there for spacers and what I would need to do for studs.

Anyone running spacers on their cobalt?

Death button is your friend. But 5mm is the general concesus on stock lugs. Beyond that id say pm blazin07ss. He seems to be knowledgeable and willing to help in these matters... Gl

Well if both of you read my post youd realize that, I did search and found NOTHING but using 5mm spacers on stock hubs/studs, which i DONT want to do.

So can someone contribute here without calling me a noob! ^ they hurt my feelings.
