Default Question about wheel spacers

I looked all over the forums but couldn’t find a clear answer and also couldn’t find them online. but I’m wondering if there are any 10mm wheel spacers that have the studs built into the spacer itself? That do not require replacing the existing wheel studs?

Would very much appreciate any info on this, thanks!

Project Kics makes them, but to be honest I'd be afraid to put 10mm spacers with pressed in studs on my car. There's just not enough material to hold the studs securely and safely in place.
There's a reason why reputable companies like H&R, Eibach, ST Suspensions don't make anything thinner than 15mm with buit-in studs.

Since I have not found a real spacer thread, perhaps we can get this one going. I am looking at 25 mm Front and 38 mm Rear Spacers. Conservative but really enhances the stance on the IS (I am imagining). I have the same set up on my SC430 and I wll post pics of it after the spacers were installed. The prices have gone down a good bit. For a pair of fronts, they are about $40 and the Rears are about $55. So for less than $100 you are all set. 10 years ago my spacers for the SC430 cost me $160.

I pulled the trigger on the Rears (5 star Review...), not quite the 38 mm I wanted but for the price, I went for it.
