That is incorrect... I just moved my 20mm Ichiba v2s that I had on my Rear to the front and they fit with no problem at all... This is with the OEM 19s.

I than replaced the rear spacers with 25mm Ichiba v2s and the outcome is perfect... Car sits flush in the front and the rear looks a bit meaner than before.

But the point of this thread is that, atleast with 20mm v2 Ichiba's in the front, the v2 with built in studs fits with no issues.
Good to hear that it works with the 20mm version. I tried with the 15mm and those definitely do not fit the front. I documented my attempt here: Spacers on stock Z?

With the 20mm spacers, the stock studs stick out less owing to the thicker spacer, which in turn is why you can get the fronts mounted.
