Studs already come in them.




And cuz they were so think my original studs hid inside quite well.

Does anyone know how long the stock studs are (just the visible part), I've just ordered 20mm iciba spacers and I know that the Axis mods do NOT have the recessed pockets for the studs, so if they are longer that 20mm then I'm gonna have to grind off the excess stud .... sigh .....

These are the only Ebay spacers I would get, I have a set and the quality is awesome, I curbed my wheel so hard yesterday, I thought I sheared off the studs right off the spacers, but took the wheel off and no damage or whatsoever. AND they're hubcentric so they fit like a glove!

I had to do 15mm spacers in the front, but my Iforged wheels do not have pockets in the rear for the these kind of spacers.

The fact that the stock lug nuts stick out about 5mm with these kind of spacers ^, I was not able to use these kind of spacers. So i had to ordered the Eibach wheel spacers with the extended wheel studs.

I also ordered ARP Extended Wheel studs That are made from their 8740 Chrome moly, so makes the allot stronger.

So when you got these spacers, did you OEM lug luts still thread on the the studs on the spacer???? OR did you have to buy new lug nuts also???

^
nothing extra was needed, I just put them on the rotor tightened them, and put the wheel on. Everything fit nice and tight and the way it's supposed too. They're pretty much the same price as the Ichiba spacers, and I had the Ichiba as well and IMO there is no difference in quality. They're both quality spacers.

Those do not come in 10mm that you are looking for. Only 15 and 25mm
