I believe this is a safe spot, as it's not on any aluminum parts or on the "pumpkin". I watched LethalCamaro's vlog on YouTube regarding jack points
I also checked the spot afterwards for any signs of flexing, etc and it was solid

Got more pics of the car, especially a full shot showing the stance?
Hopefully this gives a better idea of the stance - Here's a couple more pics

Yes, helps to have the wider track. Was interested to know how lowering it, with spacers would perform/feel.

Your stance looks just perfect! I would really like to add these spacers but have read mixed reviews about going any thicker than 5mm since the wheel won't be sitting in the hub no more. Have you had any issues since?

The spacer is a Hub-centric spacer. It slips over the 'hub' and has it's own 'hub' machined into the face. Same diameters.
So your wheel will fit perfect, just like stock.

You can get them custom made to fit other hub diameters too if you feel like buying a wheel that has a different hub. Such as a BMW fitment.

I notice that threads of the original lugs protrude beyond the flat of the spacer. Is there any possibility that the wheel will ride or interfere with those? Or does the flat on the wheel have recesses where those lugs protrude?

I recently installed some 25mm spacers under my stock rims but had rubbing issues with front tires. Anyone else have this problem?

Better be sure and measure!!! it will bolt up just fine it seems but in a while it will come loose. So just be sure some stock wheels have a hole in the back of the wheel some dontI used 20 mil and had to trim about 12mil of the stud and my wheels had holes in them.

Also after you lock tight and toqure it should not be retightent as it breaks the lock tight but I doubt it will be a problem. Not tring to be bossey just shareing my experience
