I would add that I had to retorque the rims after driving on them for a couple weeks -- they shook loose (even with hubcentric rings).
Just a word of advice. You're suppose to retorque your wheels after about 25 miles of driving. I torqued mine at 90 lbs of torque and plan on doing it again in a couple of days.

I hear ya -- I always check them after a couple days, but these spacers are the first time I've ever had the lugs loosen up.

lesson learned. Check the back of your wheels to see if there are pockets first. Otherwise you will need longer studs with slip on spacers.

I cut the stock studs on my car for 11mm custom bolt on spacers.
