so you can run wheels with thick hubs, you can use spacers, you can use them long *** lug nuts and have plenty of thread. That good enought?

Spacers are used when you need to space the rim out so that it will clear the caliper.

cars with bigger brakes like the integra can't use 13in rims for slicks unless that have a spacer.

Re: (Fitti)

for that super stunna jdm look son(DUH!) j/k. I agree, they primarily for drag racing cause they use spacers on some of the wheels. On my car I just like em cuz they make the wheel easier to put on when im workin on it. Kinda stoopid but so wut!

if you get extended studs, i think you need 50 size lugnuts if you want to cover it

wtf are you talking about?

The extended studs arent necessarily for spacers. I bought them because they are stronger than the OEM studs and very hard to damage, and makes the lugs easier to get on.

Wheel spacers can shear extended studs.

I use Skunk2 studs on all 4 corners.

Under what circumstances? Improperly torqued lugs will shear studs off too. You cant take an isolated incident, sprinkle a little urban myth and present it as fact.

Edit: Nevermind, it doesnt make sense now that I think on it. These guys were probably trying to cover their stupidity of not torqueing the lugnuts..

I retract the statement.

Nope. I just put some in my hubs two days ago and they fit fine. If you buy the wrong ones, sure they won't fit properly.
