so i am trying to find longer studs to get more clearance, any ideas on where to get them and spacers? thank you

 

Mackin industries retailers of volk rims have kics spacers. They have the lugs built into the spacer.

 

nice...ty!

 

project kiks or ichiba.

unfortunately the thinnest adapter available is ~15mm.

if you really just want extended studs, to run say a 5-10mm spacer, you can use the ARP studs made for the IS300.

 

those project kics aren't hub centric without spending the extra ~$50 on rings. if you're looking for 20mm+ i would go h&r or eibach. if you are looking for <20mm pressed stud type then the kics might be the best bet (w/ ring). ichiba also makes <20mm with studs, but their studs are on the soft side from what i understand. also, the <20mm studded type only work with certain wheels with clearance on the pad.

 

kics makes a 10mm pressed stud spacers, but the wheel pad clearance issues apply. adapters change lug patterns.

 

u can get hub rings here for 30. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...et-wheels.html

 

i went to mackins website,they have 3 mm spacers, i am trying to get them on the phone right now...thanks guys

 

3mm? lol. you probably won't even need extended studs for that.

mackin is a distributer only last timed i checked. maybe they do retail now.

 

You can get cheap ones at Advance Auto Parts too; it's where I got mine. Some tire shops can order them as well. I needed 1/8" spacers: $20 for two from Advance and $32 for "tuner lug nuts" from AutoZone.

 

you only need extended studs for spacers >3mm
so 3mm is fine.

 

Not the same type of rings that make the KICS spacers hub centric, but they are used on top of those same rings.

 

i am getting these after i found out they were available,i was only able to find 1/4 inch spacers so i didnt feel comfortable with that much of the stud being hidden behind the spacer

 

serious? i work at advance. heh, i might order some tomorrow.

 

Yeah, I called my local store and they said it wasn't something they stocked, but could custom order through a supplier. They ordered mine (wrong size, though), had it in a week (after they spent four days forgetting to order it).

In the end, my tire shop ordered them :P
