With 15mm ones they usually come with studs pressed into the spacer already, or it comes with them. So you just bolt the spacer onto your hub and stock studs, then bolt the wheel to the new studs on the spacers.

I have AP2V3 wheels. I just got Swift Spec R springs and 20mm all around optionselect spacers. I had a local place install the springs and roll the fenders and alignment. The part that surprised me was that they said with the 20mm spacers, the studs were hitting the wheels and I needed at least a 2mm spacer, but be safe and use 3mm all around. Not sure if anyone else ran into this issue, but figured that may save some people some hassle. I am running 245 Hankook tires up front and 255 in the rear, and went with the Evasive Motorsport alignment. Pics will be coming shortly after I wash the car Friday. I already got asked questions about the car while driving around earlier today. The front tires poke out from the fender, which I really like how it looks and the rears seem just right on flush. The car feels amazing and the springs make the car feel like how this car should have been from the factory.

After reading all four pages, still couldn't find an answer to my question. Does anyone know who makes hubcentric with built in studs spacers in 15mm and 20mm? Kics don't seem to have the hubcentric and H&R seems to start at 21mm.
H&R Makes hubcentric 20mm w/ built in studs. They don't however make them in 15mm.

Pic of 25mm all around on AP2V1s dropped on Monoflex recommended height:



Before anyone asks, to fit, I needed to roll the fenders all around, rear tabs relocated 2+ inches back, and most of the rear bumper edge trimmed to nearly nothing.
What's up man! I like your setup! I was planing on doing a setup like this? I wanted all 25mm and stock rims. I was wondering does it rub with the fenders rolled up?

Did you have to roll your fenders for this set up? I was planing on dropping it and maybe the same setup.

name brand vs ebay... what brands do most of you use? Don't know if I should trust some $50 ebay spacers... but $150 for a pair of jdm spacers seem ludicrous.
