    I bought spacers from that same seller on eBay. No vibrations at any speed and they fit perfectly.

    I purchased extended lugs from the same vendor. My total setup was around $90

    If it's around $90 for spacers and bolts from amazon, I would just go with the ECS tuning kit: http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B8_A4-...ers/ES2603081/

    $94 for two wheels vs. $90 for four...

    Sorry if I wasn't clear. I got 15mm front and 20mm rear with lugs.

    Price went up a little since I ordered. I went with black lugs for the front so that I could easily know if I had a front or back bolt if they got mixed up. Like I said, they work great as does my $180 FMIC setup.

    Followed the lead of some others with universal FMICs.

    Found one of these for $90. was an open box that some shop used for test fitting
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Treadstone-T...88cdaa&vxp=mtr

    Two each of what is in these listings:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/191378744134...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    and this
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/251869198473...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    The large side of the silicone elbow goes on the FMIC, then links to the 3" pipe which lines up nearly perfectly to the stock hoses.

    Just took these Amazon spacers off my car over the weekend. They were on for maybe 2,000 miles. You get what you pay for.

    i have bought several sets of spacers and adapters from 42draft designs.
    their product is amazing and extremely well done.

    i wouldnt mess around with such as important things like spacers. Who needs an issue while doing 90 down the hwy??

    like the above poster said... you get what you pay for.

    That is unfortunate. I've put a few thousand miles on mine now and they look as strong as they did out of the box. Took a 400 mile roundtip weekend excursion into the Ozarks that was 1/2 80-90mph highway and 1/2 curvy hill roads driven with spirit. On the way home, I stretched it out to 99 in an open area and I asked my fiance to guess how fast we were going. She thought 70 because of how smooth the ride was.

    I looked at the spacers this morning through the wheels and don't see any stress. I looked at a lot of reviews before buying as I usually don't just go with the cheapest option. Also have no problem supporting someone purchasing from the other two companies listed as they make great stuff for our cars.

    I tried a set like this from e-bay and got the same results they took them back for refund, luckily I took a wheel off to adjust my coilovers to find it within a few days of install. I am running H&R's know without issue.......

    Crap. I'll keep a good eye on mine.

    Also, thanks for the initial inspiration for trying a universal FMIC setup with your Multi Mod Goodness thread.
