i hear w/ spacers past a certain mm you would need extended studs. is it safe to run 5mm spacers on my teg?

rpf1 in 16x7 +43 offset is my rim size i believe

fenders not rolled or pulled

 

why do you need spacers? yes you will be ok with a 5mm spacer.

 

whats the most i can run on stock studs?

i want my wheels to be more "flush" for lack of words

 

What offset are you trying to achieve? And 5mm will be fine on stock studs.

 

^kind of hard to say which offset im trying to achieve

right now my fronts are around -2.xx and rear is 1.9 i believe

i do adjust my ride height every so often or when i feel like it so... not sure here

i just want to look more flush, will 5 do it or will i need more

a little bit sunk would be good for function too so i dont rub everywhere w/o looking super sunk =p

 

5mm won't be enough to notice.

And you do realize your alignment is also total crap if you change your ride height all the time, right? Toe and camber both change every time you change your ride height, which means if you change it often and don't get it aligned every time, you're destroying your tires.

 

What is the thickest spacer that can be used with stock studs?

 

I have +38 wheels, not much of a noticeable difference.

 

i dont chage the height too much from where it is, not to the point where its alignment is out of my spec range. i've had it brought in to check a few times .

and will +10 make a noticeable difference?

i want it to come out but i still want a slight sink so i wont rub the fenders i'm not rolled in the back or front.

will be on stock studs still

 

You should not run any spacer over 5mm on stock studs. Anything more than 5mm you should get extended studs or it will be unsafe.

 

forgot to mention im on rpf1 and have open holed lugs

edit: no 8? damn was looking to get 35 with that

how much will the wheels go with 5mm putting it to 38?

does the stress caused on wheel bearings that severe or is it something like (will last "almost" as long as if there were no spacers")

 

It's not the wheel bearings, it's the amount of threads engaged by the lug nuts. Too few threads engaged can cause much higher sheer stresses along the studs.

 

whats the safe limit?

is it 6+ full turns from when you first put the lugnut on the stud?
