Spacers questions..Pls help.

Kenchan, I am very confused. I have ordered 20mm spacers front and rear for my 2010 vert. with sport package. What factory stud are you talking about that needs grinding? The spacers come with replacement studs. I have not removed the front wheels yet so I don't know what it looks like stock or what stud you are talking about.

the ones with replacement studs require no grinding so you're set to go.

there are spacers that have built-in studs like this. if you use this type on the front the stock studs will not clear the back of the stock sport wheels (15mm and 20mm will not clear). i dont think you want to grind the stock studs since you might want to use other wheels down the road, but you will need to slightly grind the back of your sport wheels for clearance if you use 20mm of this spacer type.

this is modshack's picture.

Ok I understand now. I didn't think I needed to grind anything on the replacement kits but was confused, thanks for your clarification.

I think writing an iPhone app to toggle brightness between two set levels is easy, but I wouldn't assume everyone finds it so

Funny thing...I used to be a Level 3 Apple Technician....

i wouldnt grind the sport wheels, i would just grind the studs since they are a lot cheaper and east to replace. if you go with different wheels you can replace the studs for $2-3 ea. but if you want to sell your wheels some people may not like that you did any grinding on them imo
