The reason they are this style is because any spacer under 15mm in
thickness
cannot have bolts in them, as with these style of spacers:

Hope that clears it up
Whenever you run a sandwich spacer you take the chance of not having enough exposed thread on your existing studs.

Soleil should be getting some 15mm and we'll have to break out the dremel

Nah, I never had time yet. But this up coming monday is a for sure date. I'm putting it in the shop. I needed my car these other days to get around. But i'll be sure to keep yall updated on it.

Do yall think I should cut the ings nspec rear part around the exhaust? I think it looks pretty tight. Less air resistance too..

Example:

Were the studs on the spacer? If so then that's not the type of spacer they are talking about, that would be a bolt on spacer.
