The Unofficial WA BS thread
lol fyi the 30 mm spacers have extended studs protruding from the massive hunk of metal. And drksyde are you by any chance selling those 15mm H & R spacers? I need to space out the fronts a lil bit more.
And you can also get some hub centric rings if your spacers don't come with a hub centric bore.

without the hub centric ring, the wheel may not be aligned correctly making it spin unevenly causing vibrations when you drive. That is true that some cars do not require hub centric rings but my car (IS300) has a hub centric ring stock so I would think it is there for a reason. Otherwise, why would our cars come with the hub centric rings in the first place?
If you get a thin spacer, it is thin enough that the stock hub centric ring is still being used. Be very careful when using the "cheap spacers" because I have gotten some before in the past and they were unevenly machined causing vibrations. The vibrations can cause damage to wheel bearings (trust me, its not cheap to replace) and sometimes if your wheel is spinning unevenly due to uneven machined spacers and POSSIBLY from not having the hub centric ring... your wheel studs will break... I know because I have already been there and done that.

Yup, everywhere I read said to get extended studs anything over 5mm. I have Ichiba extended studs on it's way to me. =)
Has for hubcentric rings...I'm hearing that they are overrated and only really necessary for anything over 15mm.....This is from my research so far though.
