FAQ: Official wheel "SPACER" thread!

So I just got new wheels and I had to settle on 19x8.5 +15 in the front. The back is fine at 19x10 +20. So I was going to get a spacer for the front. I was looking at a Project Kics 20mm spacer. Would that be ok without any rubbing or anything. Also if it matters I have 245/35/19 tires in the front.
Thanks, Kaleb

hi, everyone!
just a quick question to be sure:
bought z1 slip-on 20 mm spacers along with longer 70 mm studs
do i need to buy a new set of open ended lug nuts, or can i reuse stock ones?
my rims are v2 touring...
my logic tells me that oem studs are about 46 mm and my new ones are 70, so the 20 mm spacers should clear the difference, but to be completely sure, i think it'll be better to ask)))
sorry for my english - i'm a foreigner)))

Another Z1 Motorsports broken spacers
I also thought everything Z1 Motorsports made were quality parts as well, but here's what just also happened to me 
.. Removed my rear wheels last night because I'm going to be swapping its tires and here's the awful seen I saw
My rear driver side spacer: BROKEN as well
My rear passenger side isn't much better either. You can see the cracks showing around the hub centric ring. It won't last much longer.
Like OP, when I purchased these, they were brand new along with their extended studs. Have had them on for less than 2 months. Not a single track event or even a canyon run. Extremely disappointed about how weak these spacers are. I haven't removed my front wheels since my front tires haven't showed up yet but I'm not expecting any better. I hope Z1 Motorsports fixes this problem from the spacers they're currently selling.

get the correct offset of wheels and you wouldn't need spacers..... just sayin
might want to check out the stretched tire section, sounds like you are going to be "one of those guys"
can you even stretch a 25 series to fit on a 11" wheel? my initial thoughts are its not possible
