i have a set of older enkei's that i am trying to fit on my 89' 240sx, with s14 front 5lug conversion. the offset is +10mm from fitting, and +15mm from fitting with good space between suspension components. since i lack the funds to purchase new rims i am looking at a pair of wheel spacers and longer studs, H&R 15mm 5x114.3 +arp studs

i have found a place with good selection and price (http://www.4myride.com/index.cfm if anyone here has heard of them input is appreciated) , the problem is they give a choice of 14.25mm shoulder, or 12.85mm shoulder. i have no clue what this is or how it will effect my selection. anyone know?

on a side note, where is a place with arp wheel studs, i have not found that yet (granted i've only been looking at spacers recently)

any info is much appreciated and needed. (i did search, and skimmed the faq's and searched them via cntl+F so if i missed something please point it out)

S14s shoulder bolt diameters:Front: 14.25Rear: 12.85

S13s shoulder bolt diameters:Front: 12.85Rear: 12.85

Info from http://livermoreperformance.co...ml#hr

In you case, since you have the s14 5 lug hubs you would use the S14 specs.

As for the ARP studs, I just used the ones supplied with my H&R spacer kit.

yeah, i ordered them from a place which asked for s13 or s14 and recieved the 14.25 shoulder which fit perfectly. i also ordered peak performance 60mm studs (because in searched posts people showed the knurl being crappy on the H&R) to find the only difference in the H&R's are about 4mm shorter than peak performances studs.

thanks for the info, hopefully someone else can use this in the future.

sorry noonebetter, by the time you sent this i already purchased my pair, the only reason i came back to this thread was to post my findings.
