Not tried them but I do have 30mm wheel spacers from LA Supertrux.

Very similar design, billet aluminium and they're very good quality.

If you mean the grayston spacers with the hexagonal wheel extension stud then I've been using them for years with no problem

No, there the billet alloy ones like those blue ones I used to use with my 31s.

They are a better design than Grayston but I used them for years like Twiss, no problems. Depends on your budget I guess...

what's the brand of those fwh's in darell's picture? I have a set of those on my wagon, but I need a bunch of new screws for it, and they are a really oddball size, so I'll probably have to order them from the manufacturer
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
