No they won't affect your mileage noticeably. Buy them if you want.

Case closed. /thread

SPACERS are no BIG DEAL

just get them of good brand and quality
you dont want the wheels flying out at 120 km/h

the thicker spacer you got, the more thread you are giving up in your wheel stud.

^Not necessarily, some spacers are manufactured with independent wheel studs for themselves but its still rice

! That is unless you have some hot %#%$ cool JDM rims which do not fit or present the perfect stance if not for them spacers.

I think he just wants it flush, which isn't a bad thing. I changed mine from the stock 185 to 205, and they're perfectly fine and flush against the body/fenders.

not all spacer usually spacer like 3mm,5mm and even 10mm does'nt come with stud knot as it cant hold the base properly.

well know brands usually start this kind of spacer from 15mm or even from 20mm to 25mm just like H&R, which is the tinnest they got.

just beware of that, that not all rim/wheel can accomodate this spacer with stud as they will flush out from the spacer (your standard stud) and will hit your rims/wheel (but some rims got whole/space for extra this, but not all) hard to explain

btw i got 20 mm H&R spacer with bolt which is the tinnest they got
