You need to get a set of 5mm spacers. if you search "sport" in thoe forum you'll find more threads on it.

i got the those rims and tires too and am awaiting installation until i can get 5mm spacers all around.... front wheels wouldn't even rotate after torque-ing the nuts down when i test fitted the driver's side front wheel.... been so busy with other stuff, so haven't got the chance to do the work..

Most spacers 15mm and up have studs on them because they are thick enough to be bolted on using the OEM studs and not protruded into the rim. However all 5mm and 10mm spacers don't have studs on them because they are too thin. Like EQUATE said your going to also need new studs, those usually come with the spacers if you get them from H&R.

Actually 10mm Eibach spacers come with studs included.

You could use the one for the 350Z, which is a "System 6"
System 6:
Spacer disc (10mm - 20mm) with bolt through-system
Hub-Centric with centering hub
Fastening by using longer studs (included) and your original wheel lug nuts (not included)
Also I believe, I could be wrong, Project Kics has two versions of their 10mm spacers. I called up Auto RnD and what the guy told me was that he could get the 10mm spacer with studs, but they would have to be special ordered from Japan and the lead time was like 3 months.
Other places that carry the Kics spacers offer the spacers and the studs separate in the 10mm size. Such as:
