Wheel Spacers DIY?
Basically 15mm DRA requires replacing the stock studs with the extended ones. I saw a video on youtube to do this simple way without taking out rotors. But dont see any DIY for the back. Any help with instructions appreciated.
With 20mm, you can get a direct bolt on options. But is this safer than extended wheel stud with 15mm? I have read mixed stuff online that extending wheel studs beyond 8-10mm is not safe
UPDATE: With the DRM type, you dont need to remove the stock studs. So ignore this.

I am debating between 15mm all around or 20mm all around spacers for my base IS350. Anyone done this DIY?

You are right. They are the DRM series that come with the built-in bolt. I dont need to remove my stock lugs. I am told these are safer than the DRA series that require replacing the stock studs.
