Spacer Question

I picked up some nice 10 mm spacers, there machined aluminum , but i had several ppl tell me there is a high change of the studs snapping from the spacers, Is this a myth or something i need to think about ?

I don't know why spacers would cause the studs to fail. You do need to replace your stock studs with longer ones.

If you doubt the quality of the extended studs that come with the spacers, look into some ARP extended studs.

The spacers themselves did not come with extended studs, i realized that i needed longer ones once i tried to put them on, i had a brain fart, can you direct me in the right directed to get the correct arp studs for the rear.

see if you can get H&R studs from AuToMaX_95 in the GD section. ARP works as well.
