I had spacers on my 99 Cobra wheel's.Made them look great.The ones I had were 35mm I think.I would'nt go much more than 1",any more and it would bulge out too much.

Agree, no more than 1 in. or it wont look right, They will fit with bullit wheels,studs will stick out from spacer and recede it hollow spots on back of wheel, but not all wheels have the hollow spot.
