Depends on the spacers - H&R spacers come with new studs that you have to use. Kics have the new studs built onto them, but I think that's only for 10mm or higher spacers. I'm not sure if you'll need them with 5mm spacers since I don't know how the stock lugs look with your wheels. This probably didn't help at all. lol

Though my only first hand experience with 5mm "slip on" spacers was on a different vehicle (MR-S) it was the most irresponsible/dangerous thing I've ever done to any of my cars...
Went to rotate the wheels one day before a nice mountain cruise and 2 studs on two different wheels twisted off inside the lug nut with VERY LITTLE effort... (the nuts were always properly torqued)
Could have been a disaster on that spirited mountain cruise...
Just my 2 cents...
