Hey dude, have co-workers out there working on FCS.

I guess I always expected the OEM studs and/or the lug nuts that come with the spacers to stuck out beyond the spacers, which is why I thought I would always have to make sure my wheels had those cutouts between the lug holes if I wanted to run spacers. But grinding down the OEM lugs would work too.

his spacers do not have the key that your speaking of..........his spacers are the new V2 so they use like a typical 17mm socket (i believe) to remove.....see attached pic of his 20mm V2 spacers taken from ichiba's site with the attaching nuts that use a typical socket.
OP, the old spacer design used to have a freaky ridiculous key before.....thats all...
pic 1 below - new style - uses typical socket
pic 2 below - old style - shows ugly crappy key that used to be required! key circled in thicker red circle.

It's not "old style" vs. new style. The one with the 4pt key is used for the smaller spacers (i.e. 10mm) because of the thickenss. The ones with a bolt are for larger spacers (i.e.20mm+). KICS is the same way, but I haven't heard any complaints about the 4pt bolt used on KICS spacers. No idea about the quality of the KICS 4pt bolt.
