I wanted a bit flusher look on the oem wheels and decided to run some 15mm spacers. The rear spacers fit fine and rim was flush with spacers when I put it on. However, the front spacer stock lug bolts are hitting the back of my front rims and so the wheel can't sit flush (like picture attached). The stock lug bolts are a bit off on the concaved holes on the back side rim so i wonder if there is another measurement that is off on my spacers or if I need shorter stock lug bolts for the front rim? Thanks in advance.

I forgot the name it's something Motorsport but the picture attached is from the ichiba spacers and they asked to check that before ordering as well

I would trust kiks brand. I am using it currently on my F. 12mm F and 15mm R. So far no problem using my stock rims. Normally for aftermarket wheels with low offset, i don't use my spacer at all.
