Do you have to replace all the wheel studs with longer ones?

Actually you may have to take a grinder and knock the stock ones down just a little or they will bite into the rim. You bolt the spacer to the hub using the stock bolts. The spacer will have lugs built into the spacer to mount the wheel. I did not put any spacers on the front and it looks great. I did lower the car just a tad as it looked goofy sitting that high on the newer rims as they will end up raising the car some. I'm still luke warm on running the spacers at all, now I have 10 lugs to check per side for tightness but its working fine. Then again it's in the shop for something else and have not seen it for awhile.

I am positive he's sat on them for over a decade waiting for a sale. I'm sure he'll be here to chime in any time now.
