I really recommend getting spacers in the rear with integrated studs.... Otherwise you'll have to remove the rear hubs to install extended studs and that is a pain in the ass....

For something like spacers where you may want to take them off etc... depending on your wheels so the integrated studs is the way to go... 5 minute install( integrated) vs. 4 hours or 200 @ a shop to get extended studs installed.

The link you posted I didn't see integrated studs on your list. Maybe I saw wrong.

http://adaptitusa.com/ - $80 a pair give or take a few bucks.

anyone else contact them to see if they will make 15mm spacers? the smallest spacer they make is 25mm currently.

I got on their online chat and i might as well have been talking to a robot because when i asked about 15 or 20mm spacers they gave me a canned response about stud clearance even after i said "look, my wheels have enough clearance, can you make a thinner set?"

maybe if we get some more inquiries over there they will make some thinner ones?

This is the route I want to go. I just want a pair of 15mm for the rear only. Any recommendations?

This thread is pointless...... Why waste money on extended studs, & spacers for oem wheels. Also waisting the time to roll fenders, f**k up fenders and risking the quarter panels to buckle..It's not oem, it's not jdm, it looks good but why do it???? Just buy a good set of wheels and make the car look better instead of wasting effort on oem wheels...... It's not a civic or integra people....
