Is there a difference between the Ichiba's and the H&R?

Is it possible that H&R's might be a better fit with the OEM wheels?

Great write-up Ian, you're a genius
If I decide to lower my car before I get new wheels I'll run spacers so this will come in handy. (Doubt I'll lower before I get wheels though )

smallest hub-centric H&R with the built in studs is 25mm.

Great thinking Ian. The crush ring idea is fantastic.
Good thing you do your own work though... your machanic would dig in there someday to do your brakes and be like, WTF?!?

Looks great!

InTgr8r. Once again, I must give you epic kudos. Your clutch pedal mod, awesome. This spacer vibration fix: I am happy to report that this friggin works! I removed my Wedsport TC-005 rims (with hubcentric rings) and put them back on with the copper wire fix. The vibration at 70mph is GONE. I am confident it will work just as well when I get my m45 rims back on as well. This fix is not only for OE rims but for aftermarket as well! THANK YOU!

see, this is the type of stuff that pisses me off. Tirecraft is supposed to be a reputable shop. They ignored the rings in the box and failed to install them with the wheels. I almost blew 130$ today for a roadforce balance thinking that was the problem.

Thanks guys and thank God for this site!, I will remove the wheels tn, put the rings on and re-install, then go for a spin on the highway

Yep... you'll need the rings for sure.

...unless the wheels are made to the Infiniti/Nissan hub size
