Well for my birthday my best friend got me some H&R 15 mm spacers.

Very nice box.

Comparison of the wheel studs.

Ghetto way to get them out. lol.


^^
All 5 wheel studs off.


^^
All 5 new H&5R wheel studs on.
Took about an hour of poundin' them in wit a mini sledge hammer, and a metal rod.


^^
The hub reinstalled on the car.


^^
Everythin' reinstalled wit the spacer.
It looks so freakin' nice and clean.

Pictures of the car will follow tomorrow after i get 2 of the Revo's dismounted and the Gen 2 rims mounted on.

[yaddadaimsayin]

thats how you install spacers? i thought you just poke the extended lug nuts through and place them over your existing lugs.

[Solarasian]

That's how you install NICE spacers. Extended studs like these are the way to go...

well im under the impression that they are +45 you could be right though since my wheel in the rear is at +30 and im pretty much flush then again i have a 17x8 and the gen2's are 17x7.5

I want to play with the fitment on mine and get them flush and since i have coilovers i can slam the car with the gen2's and make it look good.

Yeah i think it's + 50.
True.
Next rims will be 18 x 8 by + 38.

Looking good. Maybe I need to pick up some spacers.

Thanks man.
I had to research on some stuff to pick the right spacers.
At first most people were usin' 10 mm wit the Gen 2 Solara rims to clear the rear struts, but then i wanted the rims to sit at close to the fenders as much as possible.
Also had my rear fenders rolled already.
Since the Gen 2 Solara rims at 17 x 7 wit + 50 offset, a 10 mm spacer would make the rim a + 40 offset.
So i decided the 15 mm and that would make the offset a + 35.
No when i do have enough for some ballin' rims like *cough* Works *cough*.
I'm lookin' at 18 x 8 wit a + 38.
