OEM rays/ what brand wheel spacers do you use?

Hi. I've done a good amount of research on wheel spacers and I've seen and read other posts on here with no real solid answers for what I'm looking for.

I have an 07 g35 coupe on stock suspension with the 19 inch stock rays. Im looking at doing 25 mm all around spacers or 20/25. The problem is ones I am finding online are fairly vague about what's included on most sites I have seen. Some posts talk about having to buy extended lugs separate.. Others say they're included with most spacers. I've looked at the H&R DRM series and its kinda cloudy as to whether they include everything needed or not.

Does anyone have any recommendations as far as websites.. Brands... Types of spacers to get that will include everything needed with purchase so i dont have to place separate orders. What do u guys on stock suspensions run for spacers? Thanks

06 sedan on 18" rays here. This probably doesn't help much, but I bought no-name 20mm spacers off Amazon a couple years back that are no longer available. I believe I payed $80 for all 4. I worked in aerospace at the time so I had access to a bunch of fancy measurement equipment, and they measured within 0.0005" roundness and flatness, and came with lug studs installed (like the attached picture, but without the H&R logo). I've been running them for 30k+ miles with no issues (though I did have to roll my fenders when upsized my tires).

Subscribed... I've casually looked for these as well and most of the ones I can find are off brand. Doesnt really look like a popular enough item to be readily sold by major manufacturers. Oh, and I have OEM 19" Rays that I'd like to run 20/25 with. I'll see what it looks like @ stock height vs some tein S techs that came with suspension that I bought.

Sounds good.. I mean I've found some H&R DRMs on a few legit looking sites... 20/25 but the thing i cannot seem to find listed or stated in descriptions is does it come with all needed hardware such as the extended lugs. My local wheel shop may or may not have the needed hardware for it..however i dont wanna lay down a couple hundred on some spacers for my wheel shop to say they can't put em on.

I have 15 front 25 rear on OEM wheels/tires with 350Z springs (1/2" drop) and had to roll my front fenders so keep that in mind.

If you're talking about the factory 18's they are not Rays. They're a definite look-alike but they aren't forged like the Rays are.

Idk if it makes a difference on rolling fenders or not but at this point i have no plans to alter the stock suspension or stock 19 inch rays..picked this 07 g35 up as a DD while i save for a corvette GS and just wanna make some small cheaper yet appealing mods

Rays style*

Don't worry, I don't go around claiming to have Rays, I'll save that for when I get a set of Rotas :P
