KICS spacer info needed

heres the deal i need spacers for the front to match the ''poke'' of the rears. i need to get out another 15-20mm and from what i see on Project Kics line up i think they'll work for me. the only thing im not REAllY sure about is the original studs. if i get the 15mm my studs will go through the new mounting pad for the rim. accordin to the diagram in of the bottom pic the studs are supposed to go through the cavities that are on ''some'' wheels. my FS's do not have that. so am i supposed to trim off some of the original stud?

Re: KICS spacer info needed

if you get some open end lugs, they should just recess into the cavities of the spacer...either that, or you have a cut off wheel ;) (and its kinda confusing, but i assume you mean your stock lugs are supposed to go through the spacer, then poke out a little bit?)

Suspended: KICS spacers come with lugs that are flush mounted with the spacer. They are very small and come with a special tool to put them on.

If you don't have pockets in the back of your wheel mounting pad, yes you will have to cut down some of your stock studs.

Hey, how much does a set of those run, and where did you order them from?
Thanks.

I'm running 20mm's on my ls400 and there is still about 1/2" tread left after bolting the spacer onto the stock studs.
