Thanks for all your reply's!
I just ordered 20mm rear spacers that match the hub and the bore of the my aftermarket rims... that kind of precision made them more expensive but they will be solid when they're on.
i will post some before and after pictures when they're on.

I should've gotten these V2s instead of buying extended studs. I'm concerned the studs will require removal of the hub.

Very nice dude, I pulled the trigger on 19's. 2mpg gone but the spacer thing just gives me bad feeling.. I dont want anything to break off.
I've used Macht Schnell Spacers on my M5, I trust that brand but for this car, I don't have any experience with Ichiba so I had to pass that up.

Got those same exact wheels I paid 1300 total for Tanabe springs, Black lug nuts and Those wheels.
Springs will lower it about .5 inch rear and front. Perfect IMO drama free.
Let me know I can hook u up with my connection if you ever decide to do this.
They weigh 23 pounds according to AG.
So Gas my not be effected at all, Im not sure what the stock weight is for the Fsport wheels are.
I couldn't do it man, I tried to be happy with stock wheels, but I just can't... Not in me.. Even for my commuter lol

I just got my 20mm spacers. They were custom made for both the hub diameter and the bore of my rims so I feel quite confident about them.
I think it looks allot better!

My local tire shop uses wheelspacers.ca which ships throughout North America yet happens to be based out of the town I live in (chilliwack bc in Canada)
They where expensive though because as you can see in the above invoice, I got the hun diameter and the bore diameter of my niche wheels matched so that they would fit as snug as possible. I also had to get my studs cut down a few threads.
In the end the custom spacers where $200 for the pair and another $90 for labour. It was more than I wanted to spend but I didn't want to cheap out when it came to spacers as I don't want my rims falling off on the freeway!
If I where to do it again I would have ordered custom offset on my rims. Not only would it have been cheaper and more solid, but I like the look of the center of the rim being inset. It looks more aggressive when the spokes flare out from the inside of the rim IMO.
