The wheels are 245/18-45 going on a 97 Q45

I called a local store carrying H&R spacers and he told me he carried 2 choices, DRS 20 mm -- replace all the studs DRM 25 mm -- will fit perfectly or I may need to cut the studs depending on wheels themselves

Will the DRMs work without cutting studs for my 06 M35 wheels?

I guess I should have done some more research before trying this. I love the 8 spoke Hyper Silver M35 rims. I purchased 4 of them off Craigslist, without proper research. I found I needed a minimum 1/4 in spacer in front and longer lags as you did.

My mechanic and I have tried everything but I cannot get these wheels to work with spacers. I end up with a hard "shimmy" or "wobble" at between 55MPH and 65MPH. Since you posted back in 07' and never got any responses you probably ened up with the same problem I have, they are not going to work.

Now I got to try to resell these. I wanted to stick with a OEM Infiniti rim but I wanted to go 18X8, I don't like my Anniversary Rims at all.

It looks like the only thing I've found on the net was right here on NICO.

Not Hyper Silver and not 8 spoke but what you gonna do. 03-05 FX wheels which re 18X8 with a +40 offset.
