Did you have the spacers installed in the picture in your sig?

How quickly did your wheel bearings bite the bust?

Those 20mm spacers do look nasty though :D

yeah my sig (which I should probably change...) has spacers installed. you can't really tell since it's a side view.. here's another picture with them in. no spacers up front

not really sure how long my bearings lasted but they had almost 100k miles on them and over 5k lowered before the spacers. both bearings went after a few months

Goddamn I don't care how many times I've seen your car, I always just sit and stare at it.

I've had my spacers on since sometime in June I think and my wheel bearings are still good, no noticeable noises from them. However I'm not as low in the rear, so I'm sure my time is coming soon. :p

Just do it right and save for wheels with less offset.
