Similar question. Where is an online source to pick up some good wheel spacers for my rear wheels, and what is a good size spacer for the Es/OZ ( Being as the rear wheels are kind of sunk in a little bit compared to the front)

That really has alot to do with what your rims are too.
I see you have after market rims so you will need to figure out what your wheel offset is.

you can also buy the longer lugnuts that are sold as well. If you buy some thick spacers, I believe bigger than 15mm, they come with their own lugnuts due to the thickness of them.

I like that idea^ but my rims don't have space in them for the original lugnuts like some do (if that makes sense) even if I shave them down.
ok I guess I should ask, how many rotations should your lug nut turn before it is deemed secure and safe? I can always check mine later and see if I have room to expand

only 5mm, but I would love to roll my fenders in the future but if I did that I would like to push my wheels out another 5mm or so (at least).
I haven't heard of people just getting longer bolts. Would you replace the whole hub or what not? A link to a product for sale would really help me picture it.
Thanks a lot

That's weird because i have 8mm in the front and i only have 5-6 full turns on my bolts when tightened...i got arp extended studs on their way because of that... i have 5mm spacers in the back and only have 7 turns on my bolts when not tighntened...so i would say that 4-5mm is the safest bet with the oem studs.
