Got a noob question and not sure if it has already been ask so apologize in advance. I just scored a set of IPL wheels last night and am considering spacers. Would I need to get extended studs and how long or what threading would I need?

H&R spacers come with the extended studs on them.

Hey folks, I've really enjoyed this discussion and the pics of the sedan with coupe rims. IMHO that is the way it should have come from the factory. Question that may have already been answered (and I apologize if it has and I didn't see it)...what is the difference between the factory (enkei?) rims and the "vert" rims? They look similar to me. Is one a knock off of the other? Is one set better than the other? What is "vert" anyway? Many thanks....

Vert is short for Convertible, the wheels for the "vert" have more aggressive offsets (less positive) so the wheels will be further out (the vert has a wider back fender).

They are a good looking set, and if you don't have the big Akebonos they will hide the base brakes better too

You might be surprised. I can clearly see my Akebonos in the reflections of cars when in motion.

Put them on mine and definitely like them. It's a more modern/contemporary style. You see variations of them on several different cars.

In motion, yeah, they'll shine on through, but parked not as open/visible as the older 19s.
