Dos preguntas

Primero pregunta, I got my new set of wheels in last Friday. I just noticed today that all of the wheels are stamped with 5x120... and I freaked out a little. So I busted out the tape measure, and they all measure 4.5. Why would they be different? Just mis stamped from the factory?

Segundo pregunta, these are all +20 offset. I am lowered on DF210s (about 1.5" drop all around). I want to get 20mm spacers for all of em, but I also don't wanna rub. Should I play it safe and go +5 up front and 0 in the rear?

Forgot to mention that! Fenders are not rolled, nor do I feel like rolling them at this time. Maybe later on if I get a better offset wheel I will. Wheels sizez/tire sizes are 19x8.5 w/ 245-35-19 and 19x9.5 w/ 275-35-19

throw them on first without spacers and you should be able to judge what you need

It depends on the sentence ( context ). The way you are using it though is with an a.

If it's stamped 5x120...I doubt it's a misprint. Measuring tapes aren't exactly accurate and the difference would be a mere 5.7 millimeters .

They will most likely go in since the difference is so little. Put on Nut on and tighten it and see if the rest are centered.
