wheel spacers
so i'm considerign throwing a set of spacers on my RA, i got 18x8 with a +35 offset lowered on eibach sportlines and already rolled my rear fenders
but anyone know what size i can use without needing to get longer studs?
edit... rims are actually 35mm offset i screwed it up when i first posted it as a 30mm

3 MM - 5 MM is the longest you want to go without replacing studs. If you are looking for some high end fitment and custom sizes for spacers and hubcentric fitments you need to check out:

They will cut any size and hubcentric fitment to boot. Nice stuff.

What are your trying to achieve? You should be close to max flush in the front, and pretty darn close in the rear. Best way to tell how much more you can squeeze in there would be to throw a tape on it. You might be able to get another 5mm at the most in the rear. I tired looking at the pictures you have previously put up, but they were pretty dark. Like I said, best way to tell is to measure the distance from your tire to the fender

wrong.
Im running 10mms on all 4 wheels with no issues. The lugs turned over 10 times, the minimum is 7 by industry standard.
that said, your running a 30 offset, no real reason to go more aggressive, it wont change the look at that point. Your best bet would be to get a wider wheel, something concave to get the more aggressive look you want

how so?
it turned more then 10 times. There is no risk. They stay tight, dont move, and run just fine.
People need to test for themselves and listen less to fear monger stuff like OMG 10mm is too much because my dads sisters uncle had a motor bike with training wheels once type stuff.
