About to pull the trigger on some 19x8.5" wheels +38, running 225/35/19 tires. I'll need 5mm spacers in the rear (or maybe 8mm, thoughts?). Anyways, I was looking at spacers and it doesn't seem like I'll need extended lugs for just 5-8mm. My question is, will I need to buy a spacer with a hub on it so the wheel has something to sit on? Is 5mm thick enough to obscure the stock hub? I still want to use hubcentric rings with the wheels so they sit properly centered on my hub, but I don't know if the spacer is going to get in the way of this. Any thoughts?

I might have some ichbachi spacers around 5mm with the correct size hub. I will let them go cheap let me look.

If you do the universal cheap ones, do not go over 5mm on the oem studs.

Thanks for the replies. I'll def ve interested in the ichiba ones. I think I'll bite the bullet and pay for the ichiba ones because they are hub centric and won't wobble. will I still be able to use the hubcentric rings with the wheels? I'm not sure if being hubcentric is only important for the fronts or not? So I guess final question is since this for the rears only, do I go universal for $20 or pay $50 for hubcentric?

Let me look when I get home if I still have them (moved recently) I can do better than 50 for 2, 5mm ichiba spacers that are already hub centric.
