I want to push the limits a little more until I can figure out if I am keeping this car and going with new wheels. It's just my daily, and I drive it literally every single day but now I wish I went more aggressive then I already did.

Basically my question is, for those running spacers out there are you running studs also? On my wrx I ran custom milled 15mm hub centric spacers so I NEEDED ARP studs. I found that H& R makes a kit for 10mm and includes studs seen here:

Problem is, I don't think I can do a 10mm in front. Would I be able to get away with a 5mm spacer up front with stock studs? Is anyone doing it currently? For the rears, I may do a 3mm-5mm, depending on how the front sits. Right now, the front sits flush but I want a little more poke to it to match the 11JJ rears.

yea but how can we tell you if it works or not if you keep the wheel specs secret? AND~ you gonna drive in 4x4 mode? achieving the perfect fitment doesn't mean how far out you can push the tires, its about how far out yet still not have any gap and tuck part of the tire WHILE not messing the fender in a turn... many have tried and many have had and still have to fix fenders... anyone can be aggressive but to do so while tucked and no rat eaten looking fenders is the holy grail.

I know what works in my head, and I am not asking what size spacer I can go with. I am asking if I can run a 5mm on stock studs. lol If I go 10mm, I know I need studs.

My car is also tucking tire. I posted pics of it pre-alignment.

The car does not rub at all! I have the rears pulled/fronts pulled and front tabs complete gone with custom brackets the body shop made me. I wasn't trying to be cocky, I just don't want to share offsets because others on here do not. When I asked for helped and talked specs, people said it couldn't be done. It's on my car and I am slammed, so I think I did just fine. haha

OHHH~ ok then, yea you can run 5mm on stock studs.

I found this pic. I have room up front and I know I can go out more.



My natural camber up front was -2.2, 0 toe. That's without the ball joints, which I refuse to get because they make too much noise.

my bad if I came off the wrong way or if I didnt know what I was talking about. haha This is just my daily, I have a few other cars I have built on magazine covers and features on every site out there lol. This one actually just shot for canibeat, which should be up soon!

I appreciate you're help and suggestions!

bro, you're good with the 5mm. I ran a 10 on my old wheels and added new studs. I think it looks PERFECT. I think you need a nice new lip. That would make it SICK!

Thanks bro! You mean front lip? or like wheel lip? I actually just had the bumpers/trunk shaved and painted. I was going to switch over to 09+ bumper and lexon lip but decided not to.

I actually wanna get rid of this car for a E92 m3 because if I keep it, I know I am going to go buy a gtr and I don't need that right now LOL

I'm running a 5mm up front. You'll be fine without extended studs.

ohno

Looks good. I'm surprised you fit a 19x11 in the rear!! What size tire are you running in the rear?

Dimitri

Yeah, it wasn't hard at all! The shop that builds my subaru did all my fender work, pull, & alignment same day.

Thanks man! Any brand spacers you run? wheeladapter.com does custom milled one hubcentric to the wheels/hub but they're $160. I just wanna throw some 5mms on that are designed for lexus hubs if I can.

I probably don't, but I am just bored lol. I know it will look better if I do though.

Check out the front, it can come out a little IMO!



maybe a tinnnnnyyy bit in the rear also.



and side it doesnt look bad but maybe I can go lower, but only if it doesnt rub. I would hate that everyday lol



Done deal! haha I want to go wider/lower offset. I think I can turn this 4.75" rear lip into a 5.5+
