Kenchan,
Yep, the CV's offsets are +38. I meant spacers to raise the rear a bit, since the eibachs lower the rear more than the fronts. I wanted to retain the stock height balance thus the reason for the spacers. Sorry for the confusion.

Miniaack,
The shop who installed my springs custom made them. I believe they shaped it from a solid piece of rubber. It looks exactly like the rubber pad where the rear springs sit on, only thicker. Hope that helps.
