Default Quick Question about Ichiba vII 20mm Spacers

I want to install the Ichiba version II 20mm spacers for my rear. Will these spacers clear the stock studs or will they stick out?

I have searched throughout the forums and I found out that it does clear for the IS, but I didn't get a clear answer for the GS.

Thanks for the help!

Don't have an anwer to your question but I wanna add that Ichiba spacers are just good enough quality... I recommend going for Project Kics or H&R.

They will stick out. My buddy had 25mm bolt on spacers and the stock studs stuck out.

i had a 25mm h&r and it fit perfectly on the front using oem wheels... 30mm in the rear using project kicks. I dont know about 20mm though. Although, it makes sense that it would stick out to a maximum of 5mm (emphasis on maximum).

I'm assuming you want to use oem wheels? check out if there is any indentation on it.

Yeah.... make sure your wheels have gaps in the back so that the wheels can mount over the stock studs. Otherwise, you may need to go with Ichiba v1 spacers.

I've heard the opposite. I haven't run across anyone who has provided me with a definitive answer. I have Ichibas so I do hope the studs hold up well over time.
