spacer question
#2
Measure how far out you would like them to go (in millimeters) and then buy the appropriate spacer. If you need 10mm, for example, then buy 10mm spacers, and probably extended wheel studs would be a good idea. It's fairly straightforward.

eh? you mean the biggest spacer size without replacing studs?
I would say 8mm-10mm MAX because you want to make sure your lugs complete the necessary amount of turns for safety,etc. Anything more than 10mm would either be replacing studs for longer ones, or get bolt on spacer.

I have used both bolt-on and slip on spacers. From off-brand, custom, to eibach. H&R are popular, as well as Ichiba. The Ichiba V2 (Version 2) are the bolt on type.

That varies depending on the wheel. I had 5/16" or 8mm cheapies spacers with stock wheels and there was a good amount of threads left. Once I got new wheels, enkei rp02, they did not seem enough. I've read seven turns on the lugs is safe. Still I would not recommend sandwich spacers of any size with out the matching extended studs. I also recommend hub centric for safety and vibration free install. Hub centric are only available on the thicker, bolt on style.

It's happened to me before...not enough threads for the lugs. Believe me, get as much as possible.
2 lugs came off, 2 lug studs broke off at the same time and wheel came off driving very slowly trying to limp into a parking lot off a busy street. No damage thankfully, but lesson WELL learned.
