Default Kics spacer Question

Hey all. Anyone running Kics 15mm spacers on AP2 V3 wheels (08 up)?

Wondering if i would have to cut the stock studs to run the kics spacers with stock wheels.

no cutting studs use spacers with built in studs.

hmm i'll take off my wheel and check for clearance.

Now Do I need a spacer with a ring? Or are the Kics spacers fine the way they are?

basically. do they need to be hubcentric? I'm finding mixed opinions. Some saying you need to run hubcentric some saying you dont need to. Facts needed please.

hubcentric is always better, but not a necessity if you tighten your wheels in the air. There may be some slight vibration at higher speeds if the wheel isn't perfectly centered.
