I am looking for 20mm wheel spacers and was wondering if the H&Rs came with longer studs or not, I can't seem to find a straight forward answer to my question. I don't need the type that bolt on to the existing studs and have new ones attached to the actual spacer, I can't think of a proper name for them. Just ones that can be used with longer wheel studs. Here is what I am looking at http://www.store.yahoo.com/pha....html . Any help with my noobish question will be appreciated.

the term you are looking for is "slip on" or "sandwitch" spacers. they are the kind that goes over longer wheel studs. the other kind are called bolt on spacers.

also nismo studs are crap, i suggest ARP

the slip on spacers dont come with new wheel studs, if thats what your asking. you have to get extended studs and put them on thoes. the bolt on spacers come with studs pressed in already, however.

i have 20mm h&r's and they do come with studs. they're really crappy though, look at the knurl length compared to stock and arp. i sold the h&r and used the arps. arp is slightly longer and they're gold so they're awesome.

The ARPs also require that you get a new set of lugnuts since they are a different thread pitch than OEM.
