lolz soon i promise...

no i have stock studs. 5mm isnt that fat of a spacer.

if i do get 20mm or 15mm spacers.....is there a set that just bolts on to the old studs and the spacer has its own studs for the wheel?? cuz i dont feel like taking apart my hub and spindel to get to the stockies.........

There are set of 20mm. Just hope the wheel has an indentation for the studs which will
protrude a bit.

25mm H&R DRM are the best bet, bolt on to wheel, bolt wheel to spacer.
Quick Google searrch....

Quick question bout the 10mm...is it really necessary to use the extended studs with them?? Cuz i was looking at em and they aren't really that thick...i want to kick the rear wheels out a bit and i don't think 5's will be enough...

yes the 5mm's arent good enough. i would go 25mm but im not into that fat wheel look. 15mm - 20mm is good enough for me. heck 12mm would be great.

10mm should be fine just try not to hit turns too hard tongue.gif or your studs might give out laugh.gif

If you get spacers, don't cheap out on them. These are your wheels we're talking about - the connection between you and the road. Correct me if i'm wrong, but i think H&R makes the best spacers out. I think they run $250+

i dunno i got it from one of my gen.7 celica guys in CCO biggrin.gif i doubt 5mm will do anything severe. i know if you get cheap 20mm ones then yeah they'll bug out.

are the H&R ones a plug and play set of 4???? cuz my friend with the new IS-F(white) bought i think the h&r's and he has to get longer studs. he didnt get the plug and play

from the link posted a few posts up (Options Auto Salon), they come in pairs only.. which is great cuz i'm looking to get spacers that are a bit wider in the rear than the front.
i'm thinking about getting 15mm front and 20mm rear (H&R) sorta like Kadett's and Tech9ine's setup.

They SHOULD come with longer studs, and be plug and play. Check before you purchase though.

from what i can tell, H&R has the extended lugs already built-in inside the spacer (plug & play)... where as the Ichiba spacers has the lugs separate from the spacers which will require more work like removing the brake rotor and swapping the stock lugs for the extended ones.. is that right?
