One thing i have to ask is that why doesnt cars like the s2000, 350z, g35, etc come already like when they are equipped with spacers.

I mean its not a family car or a sedan that you have to worry too much about rubbing or anything and it doesnt rub anyways. Without them it looks like a crap, imo especially the G35. lol
If the wheels/tires sat flush with the fenders right from the factory, there's a good chance the fenders could rub the tires when the stock soft suspension compresses under heavy cornering or going over huge bumps/dips.

Looks pretty good...I don't think it's worth anything to use on stockers but that's up to the person spending the money and installing them.

You should look at that video on my first post. Explains why most car are required to have the amount of gap that they do. The H&R video explains it all.
