What size/brand spacers do you recommend? I've read a lot about the ichiba and H&R brand having soft studs that can strip and break. I know this has already been answered in the past, but that thread is like 5 years old! Times change and parts get upgraded. Any thoughts on any **RECENT** Spacer setups? I am looking to get 20-25mm

dont buy spacers that large and you'll never have to worry about the breaking

I need to for the rims I will be running. They wont clear my Brembos and I don't want to do a wilwood kit either.

Buy rims that fit?

Buy extended studs and get slip-on spacers if you're worried

I was looking to go the cheaper route, but just decided to go all in with the expensive ones. STM 20mm spacers and arp extended studs. I really don't want my new rims to fall of on me while I am at the track lol.

you went the proper route IMO. i know the hesitation with bolt-on's, im not sure i'd trust them fully either
