Looking to trade two 20mm bolt on spacers for two 20mm non bolt on spacers.
Reason being is that I have extended studs in the rear for the 15mm I currently have on and I needed the 20mm with the 15mm so my car wouldn't rub with the winter tires I had. Now I want to space out my tires some more, but can't because the GT4 wheels don't have another set of holes so the studs will start to press into them if I use the 20mm bolt on spacers. The 20mm's that I have are 5x100 and hubcentric. Looking to trade for the same thing, just non bolt on. Thanks. |

How hard was it to install the extended studs? I will have to do that for mine because my OZs don't have the extra holes in the back either..
Sorry for the offtopic haha good luck with your search! -------------------- |

Well if you have the stock studs, you don't need to worry about the wheel hitting the studs because the stock ones are short enough.
I, on the other hand, already have the extended studs in the rear. So it's either I swap out the studs and put the bolts on spacers on or get non bolt on spacers. |

It's the nuts that hold the spacer to the hub that hits my wheels..They don't sit flush with the spacer. I was just wondering how much of a pain it is to swap studs on a 6th gen..

I actually used a house hammer. Lol. Used a I think it was 2-5lb hammer for all 20 studs with no problem. Hardest part was installing because I didn't have an impact gun. -_-"

Then I used a breaker bar so the hub wouldn't spin and a washer, socket, washer, wheel nut combo on each of the studs to get them on. It actually wasn't too bad of a setup for when I put the entended studs on |
