i would... it's just that my hub looks like this they're not made to accommodate spacers with extended studs. i got the 5 mm cuz i don't need to use extended studs and i got the 25 mm to clear factory studs.



what brand rear did u get? on a 5mm spacer i would still change the studs u dont want to risk the studs snappig for extra mins labor.

That sounds like a good choice for sizes. To be honest though, your previous set of VS-XX wasn't that much better. They were basically the same up front and prob less than 10mm difference in the rear.

I think it looks great. Rear could use a spacer but I dont see what the big deal is. Its just not agressive enough is it? Don't stress it too much.

Edit: I'm runnin Iforged 19x8.5 and 10 in the rear and it seems my front rim is a bit more tucked than the back, opposite of yours.
Hmmm...spacers...not a bad idea =P

i decided to hold off on the spacers until i can get my lazy as$ to extend the studs

i got my 5mm and 25mm about a few days ago. tried on the 25mm on the rear and wow, way too aggressive for me. then i tried the 5mm on the rear and i could only get 4 turns of the nut

i sold the 5mm already. still got the 25mm if anyone wants them. check out my FS ad in the marketplace.

Thats like going to school with some not-so-hot (rate them out of ten) 5 out of 10 females and after 3 years of looking at them, you rate them at 7.5 which is just enough to hook up with em because everyone else in the city is a 4 out of 10.

Quit staring at them and put some spacers on.

BTW, Im not saying they look 5 out of 10! I actually really like that rim design and I think I know which seller you are talking about cause I was considering it as well.

Get those spacers and post some pix

u can always just grind your stock studs and then use a spacer with ones built in. thats about the laziest way u can do it. changing the rear studs is a good bit of labor.

If you order the "standard" offset that's what you get...something conservative. If you want custom offsets from iForged, you sure can order it.
