Need Help with Extended Wheel Studs and Spacer!!!

Hey Guys I need some help with Extended Wheel stud size and spacers. I'm running Rohana Wheels 20x9 and 20x10 I feel like the front are sunk in a little to much I want more of a flush look with the fender. Tried putting a 5mm spacer in but not enough thread on the stud to run it. What size wheel stud and spacer should I run to make the front more flush. Thanks.

Were you able to get enough threads on the nuts to at least get the wheel on and lower the car (not drive it) just to see how it looks? If you can do that just to see if you like the result I'd try that first. It's hard to recommend a particular size spacer without being there firsthand.

OK I'll try that and update! Thanks

With those widths & offsets I'd shoot for a net offset similar to staffer Lt8che, his fit is spot on front & back IMO. https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...ml#post3815735 He's running 9.5 +30 on 265s all around, so to get that overall fit on your 9 +35/10+40 you'd need a 15 mm spacer up front (if you run 255s) or a 17-20mm (if you run 245s). In back if you're running 275s already then your fit would be the same at the fender as Lt8ches. This will simplify your project since those wider spacers can use a bolt on setup which only takes minutes and OEM studs

Shoot a PM to Charles at B2, they have their house branded spacers that work well. https://www.myg37.com/forums/private...newpm&u=335340
