5MM Spacer question

I searched but found no answer...

Would I need to have extended studs if I add a 5MM spacer to the back ?

Thanks !!

Try posting in the socal section, might have better luck there. And what are your wheels, settings, and offsets? 5mm vs 10mm is a pretty decent difference

You wont be able to tighten the lug nuts at all with a 10mm so keep that in mind before you meet up with someone for a test fit.
