Here is my install of the BMS Wheel Spacers. I bought 10mm for the Rear, and 12mm for the Front. Due to front passenger side wheel lug bolts being overtightened (not by me), and un-removable at this time I could only install the rears. It was hard to get exact before and after pictures, enough to tell a difference. While driving so far, the rear end does feel slightly less wobbly.
When I had my tires put on at a local Firestone, I'm thinking they overtightened the lug bolts. I went back today to have them loosened by impact air tools, but the employee claims they always tighten to spec. Even with the air tools, the front passenger bolts wont budge.
Following pictures are of just the Rear Passenger side. As usual with me, More pix the better.

After some brake cleaner and a good scrub, it looks... well the same.

A few Finished Shots. The difference is subtle, but it was a fun install. Hopefully soon I'll have my 12mm up front.
