Default Wheel Question (Question Needs an Answer!)

Okay, I've been in the search for 18x9 (front) and 18x10 (rear) Bullit rims for some time now. I found http://www.mustangtuning.com/anthrac...8x9-18x10.html browsing around the Mustang Tuning site.

These rims use spacers in the front, apparently. I know there's already another wheel thread about spacers but that one simply hasn't produced an answer.

Is it acceptable/safe/sensible to drive daily on these front wheels with the 1/4" spacers?

The spacers will not pose any safety issues. However, if you plan on running some AutoCross with those wheels and spacers, then I would be concerned. Otherwise, they would be fine.

Is there any risk of mechanical damage?

Thanks for the help.

Nope... THese are the same that I plan on getting here real soon. I would have had them by now but some group buys came through (2 in a matter of days) and I have no extra money right now.
