If I went through all the trouble to add the longer studs, I wouldn't be putting the studs that came with the spacers. I'd get some really nice ones that will withstand a nuclear blast and then the price just keeps going up. Getting the spacers with studs built in makes it a 5 minute job.

Why would you buy wheels that you want and spacers??
Why not just buy correct offsets and be done with it

Spacers are a compromise...not a solution...
If you have +41 wheels with 10mm spacers...and that's what you want...but the wheels with +31 offset...and be much happier than trying to get the stupid spacers to fit etc etc
There is no magic to this...proper offset and the wheel fits

If you have a set of wheels and want to bring them out a bit..and you are willing to use spacers to do it...that's different...but buying spacers with new wheels is so strange....

They don't make the wheels he wants in that fitment. It's either 9 +41 or 9 +15. PS there are 2 sets for sale right now for ~$110 shipped each on evolutionm.net You can probably talk them down a little bit even. If those other spacers are $100 for a set of 4 (doubtful), then you are saying that guy is only gonna charge $100 to switch out the studs on all the wheels? The other thread said the rears were quoted at 3 hours. Not sure if that was one side or both.

Trust me, if these wheels were available in a +30 offset I wouldn't have even had to think twice. Seems like spacers are my only option, though.

275's (I can't remember) with 18x9.5 +30 fit with no problems lowered atleast 1.5 inches on all four corners. Based off of that, this should give people ideas of what can fit..... Obviously it will vary depending on....... IDK, camber, height, etc...

18x9.5 +38 w/ 255/35 in the front 265/35 in the back
it fits but my question is should i get tein or tanabe springs?
i can get the teins new for 190 + tax or the tanabe for 198 + tax + 25 shipping
the tanabe lowers it a lot more in the back which im not sure if i need or not
also will i have to roll my fenders with either of the set ups?

I have 9.5 +28 with 245s in the back and had to trim the bumper tab down pretty good. I think you should say what all you had to do to make it fit when you say that, since yours should stick out 1/2" past mine. I'm gonna try 265s next go around though. You may have a lot more camber or a much stiffer suspension thogh.
