Wheel spacer help.

[rv_zenki]

Hi, I have a s14 zenki base with aftermarket wheels (Konig Feathers). They have universal 4x114.3 and 4x100 bolt pattern and I want to put some 20mm spacers on. My question is, will I need extended lugs if the spacers are hub centric because the back of my wheels don't have the space for the lugs to go? Will they stick out that far even though they are 20mm? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

1, i was going to recommend running hubcentric spacers with attached studs rather than extended studs (and then i kept reading)

i ran 20mm spacers... but i cannot remember if the stock studs were completely flush (or under) the spacer. plus, my wheels DID have 'those recesses.'

one way to figure this out is to go out to your car, safely raise your car up, remove the wheel, and measure (with a ruler, etc) from the hub to the end of the (stock) stud. then convert from inches to metric. if its under 20mm, should work.

Generally studs are about an inch long, so 25mm, You may need to chop the ends of you studs off, which isn't a big deal. Just put an open end lug nut on, mark where you need to cut them and use an angle grinder. Then just clean up the threads as best you can and remove the lug.

Alright thanks. I will measure then today and see how long they are!

I would use extended studs, go with ARP studs. Also any spacer 12mm and above should be hubcentric. More info found here: http://www.fullytorquedracing.co/writeups/spacerfaq.pdf

Also if you're looking for spacers check out my company Fully Torqued Racing (http://www.fullytorquedracing.co). We make spacers for all kinds of cars including 240s.

You're gonna need extended studs dude. I did them with mine and it was a bitch. Get 25mm or more. DONT CUT YOUR STOCK STUDS!

+1 to bolt-on hubcentric spacers. You can get some for $60 on ebay. I've had mine on for 3 years no problem.

Anything under 25mm will require you to cut down your studs, no big deal.

Yes agreed I'd used a bolt on 20mm had to cut my Oem studs not a big deal at all. Everything works and functions just fine.
