Wheel Spacer & Lug Bolt Question

I have stock OEM rays and want to pull them out a bit. I was thinking of going with the 25mm Spacers. How long of lug bolts am I gonna need. Wheres the most affordable place to get this stuff without buying sh*t.

Also, ive seen pictures with spacers, but anyone who could post one here with 25mm all around I would appreciate it.

One more thing, if I drop it on Teins will they be out too far with 25mm and will I need my fenders rolled?

Thanks people!

if u dont want to replace your stock hub bolts you should get the ichiba V2 spacers, those spacers have built in studs so its a direct bolt on. depending on how low you drop your G you may or may not need a fender roll.

I think the drop is 1 inch in the front and like .7 in the rear. I cant decide if I should drop it before I buy my spacers or if it wont matter.

It doesn't matter what you do, in the end... since it is your car.

But good selection on your first mods. A drop and spacers definitely changes the way it looks. Too bad the Rays didn't come from the factory with better offsets, but I guess if they did, then some Sedan owners wouldn't have clean looking rides with coupe 19's.

I run 25mm spacers on all 4 wheels and I really like the look. I used to be dropped on z-htechs and I had no problems rubbing until I upped the size of my rear tires to 255/40's. Then I had to roll my rears but after that it was fine. I am currently dropped on coils now and I only rub a bit in the front and I am dropped a decent amount more than most people go.

Need some help please!!

I just got through putting some 20 & 25 ichiba v2's on, and like the new stance.. Can anyone help me out?? I stripped one of the studs on the spacer, and was wondering if anyone knew where I can get a replacement?? I think I may have tightened a lug that was crooked, or the stud and lug bottomed out. Got one from the stealership (OEM), but not sure if they are the same length. Had to use the ride to get the OEM stud, so wheels are back on, and can't get to them right away to check till tomorrow. Anyone one know the right specs or where to get one?? Or if the OEM stud will work with the ichiba v2 wheel spacer? Would appreciate any help you guys can offer.. Thanks
