trying to avoid that route. wheels sit nice where they are now and I don't want to have to deal with the new hub bolts needed to use the spacer.

thanks anyway.

+1^!!

Hub-centric rings, too. I was SO anti-spacer until I did the research on Ichiba V2 spacers and Project Kics. 5mm is negligible insofar as looks, and if that's what it takes to give you enough room for the brakes to me anyhow it would be a no-brainer.

Good luck!

You will not need longer studs for the 5mm spacers as long as you can get 8+ turns out of the nut, and the effect on looks is very insignificant.

I don't think 5mm spacers come that way. only lager sizes like 15mm and up.

what I really need is someone who has this kit on already and can test fit. I actually have an extra 19x9.5. maybe I should mail it to Coz to test fit.

Just curious how much of an increase in price the 2pc rotors will add in comparison to the full kit with Stoptech rotors?

Estimated to be around $800-1000 extra.

Do the OEM 18s or spare tire from the 03-04 6MT coupe fit over these?

OH ****!!!!
I never even thought about the spare hmmm... I'll have to work on that - I only have OEM 17s and a donut as back ups... and I already bought the brakes... I guess I just need to hope I never have a flat.

I have a couple cans of Fix-a-flat in the trunk, but I've been told they ruin TPS so I planned not to use them... I guess now I have no choice

The '07 Sedan spares won't fit, and it's pretty "open". The only spare i know of that will fit are those from the '08+ G37 Sport's.
