I personally installed a bolt on spacer by Kics because they are easy to install and do a great job. My car handles a little better, and feels a little more stable at higher speeds. Every site I have been on has raved about these spacers and I would have to agree, you can't beat the ease of a 3 minute install.
End Result closer to the fender and looks much more agressive.

If the spacer width or your rims allow you to use the spacers with studs on them, then by all means use that instead of a regular spacer and longer studs. It just saves you time and money IMHO. I've used 25mm H&R spacers on my NSX daily driver stock rims for a long time and had no problems. However, my current rims for my LS doesn't allow this option since I'm only going 10mm and there isn't enough space on my rim hub to allow for the stock lugs which stick out a but. Whichever one you choose though go hub centric as mentioned above.

Those spacers did gave your wheels a very sexy and flush stance.

Hey Sleeper408, are those spacers Hubcentric? I was going to order these, 20mm, but they don't appear to be hubcentrics:

I ran kics spacers on all 4 wheels, they are not hubcentric but you can get hubcentric rings for them. The place I ordered them from gave me a set for free since they screwed up my order.
