Re: thoughts on these ebay spacers

Like anything else...you get what you pay for. It's best to find something that's hub centric (the big hole in the middle of the spacer fits over the hub to center it) and wheel centric (the spacer has a lip for the wheel to slip over to center it). If you only rely on the studs to center the wheels, they'll never be perfectly centered and can result in vibration at higher speed.

If you decide to use something higher quality, I have an extra set of brand new Motorsport Tech spacers that are both wheel and hub centric. They're annodized black and have only been used for test fit. They cost more, but they're very high-quality pieces.
