Default Eibach Pro-Spacer Question

i was searching the mynismo site for wheel spacers and i saw 15mm spacers for the Z in the type4-direct bolt onto the stock studs and the wheel bolts to the studs on the spacer, i was aware that spacers of this type existed for 25mm spacers, but wouldn't the stock studs stick out of a 15mm spacer too much and prevent the rim from being mounted? thanks for any help

Depends on the wheels, some wheels have recesses where the bolts would go to allow for the spacer to work. Check your wheels to make sure there is clearance before ordering, and if not use the spacers with extended lugs

Yes, also spacing the wheels too far out on stock studs can cause stress to them because you are changing to mount point further out.

The mount point for the stock studs is the same using this type of spacer, new studs are attached to the spacer which the wheels are then bolted down to. This puts no more stress on the lugs than a low offset wheel
