Which to buy? I want the 15mm since the 5mm aren't enough for my z rims fiasco. But what bolts do I get, the 14,15 or the 12,85? It seems like each selection is the same except for they are more. I'm sure they go in order like 5mm, 15mm, 30mm, 40mm.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, modding aint never easy.

Your link doesn't bring you to the page.. need part# or something...

If you get 15mm spacers... you'll need to change your wheel studs because it'll move your wheels out over 1/2"!

Even with the 5 mm, he'd probably have to change out his wheel studs. I'm running 1/4" spacers (6.25 mm) and it's really close to the limits of the stock studs, I'm not comfortable with how little thread I have left. Anyone know where to get longer wheel studs? Everyone says auto parts store, but every one I go to just gives me a funny look and tells me they don't have it.

Shadow....

Basically the H&R is a real high quality spacer that comes WITH the studs. I already bought the 5mm which comes with the studs. My problem is that 5mm is not enough. I need the 15mm which still really won't look like their sticking out cuz the wheels are more sunk in on a 3rd gen. They do come with the studs but my question was which size. The carparts database says that nissans come with 2 differnt size something...not the thread part, but the part that fits into the main hub(or whatever you call where you tap the stud in).

I'm calling Adam at stillen in the AM. He seems very knowledgeable. I'll post here. Your right...it seems studs are VERY hard to come by. H/R is the only/few to make em. All the wheel/tire places here say that they have spacers and they COULD change the studs......if they could find em.
