Default wheel adapters/spacers, please advice me....

In order to keep my 17" wolfrace chrome mantis wheels, with Toyo Proxies 205/40/17, and fit them on my JDM prelude, I was interested in buying custom made wheel adapters from a company. It will convert my PCD and act as a 25mm spacer.

Was just wondering if 25mm is too much, will the wheels be sticking out too much? or is this ok, i would really like to use them and keep my wheels.

25mm is way too much, you will need 12 inch long wheel studs.....and you will be the mexi supreme, the tires will stick out like 2 inches.....

ohh, but 25mm is one inch, so how come would stick out 2 inches?? they say the adapter/spacer bolts to the hub, then they have their own studs which the wheel bolts to.

i was exaggerating....but as far as chrome rims go, they usually are wide, for major bling factor....so that combined with an inch spacer is definitely gonna have the tires way out....

and you will need some long as wheel studs, 12 inches was a joke, but you do need some.....

lol , ws jst imagining the 12" stud in my head...confused me:p do you know how long the studs are on the hubs? I am guessing the smallest the adapters can be is the length of these studs, since it would fix on to them. They already have their own new studs on the adapters, so I wouldnt need longer studs right?......ile show you what i'm talking about..... thanks for your help btw.

It is not the same ones in the picture... they say they can custom make it to any thickness and said min would be 25mm, prob to fit the hub studs, if thats how long the studs are.
