    Sorry but i hope you realize that 20th suspension is only about 1/2" to 1" lower than stock, maximum. One thing to watch out for with the 10mm spacers is that some of them have the hubcentric lips, some of them dont. If the ones you buy DO have the rings, you will need to grind a few mm off the hubcentric rings on your hub so that it will fit on. If yours DO NOT have the hubcentric rings then i would very very very very highly recommend getting some hub extenders from euroimagetuning. They are meant to add hubcentricity (word seems like it really should be in the dictionary) to non-hub centric spacers.

        Thanks for the heads up on the hub issue I didn't know about that. With regards to the 20th anniv height thats all the lowering i want, and my buddy is letting them go for cheap so i couldn't resist.

          important to note that this is not always the case. The ones you had were like that, but my previous set of 10mm spacers w/lip fit fine without any grinding required.

            Step 1. Take off a wheel
            Step 2. Measure the center hole and inner chamfer on the wheel
            Step 3. Measure the hub depth and bevel on the car
            Step 4. Order spacers that actually fit
