Default Spidertrax 1.5" Wheel Spacers

I installed the subject wheel spacers a couple of days ago and am pleased with the results. The spacers definitely give a more aggressive stance, and as far as I can tell, did not effect handling at all. I've attached some before/after snaps for those that may be considering and are interested in the difference. I'm running 35x12.5 Nitto EXO Grappler AWTs on 18x9 wheels for reference. 2.5" Mopar lift as well.

I couldn't find the model number (found lots of other random numbers...) stamped on the back to be able to cross reference on the website, but it appears to be stamped ET 12 on the back of the spokes. I know they make this model in ET -12 as well but I couldn't see a "-" in the stamping. BTW, the wheels are Vision 420 Lockers.
