Default Wheel spacers

On a 2gen gs, if I wanted to add 20mm spacers would I have to get extended studs or can I run them with stocks?

They have 2 types of spacers. 1) spacers that require you to replace your stock stud with extended studs and 2)spacers with built in studs that bolt right up. You won't find a 5mm or 10mm with built in studs. If you are planning on running 20mm spacers on oem studs, it won't work or be safe. Extended studs are required or get 20mm spacer with built in studs. GL

the only problem you will have on 20mm is if your rim would clear it or not, sometimes behind the rims there are no clearance for adapter studs, i would definitely run adapters no matterwhat anyone says about the safety, ive gone 110 mph on adapters on my gs hahahahaha no problems studs are cool too i have them in front.
