Default Which spacers are the best?

Hey guys,

I'm gonna purchase some spoon calipers. My wheels are rg2's 17 x 7.5 +45. I know I need a 10 mm spacer according to the "Official wheel list that fits over spoon calipers" thread. My question does it matter what brand spacer I get? Never ran spacers before so I really have no personal experience with spacers and what brands are high quality. And do I need extended studs with a 10 mm spacer? Thanks for your help.

If you just get a "spacer" just get the cheapest 10mm one that fits your wheel studs that you can find (should be liks $5 or less for both). And if you just run a basic 10mm spacer, yes you will need extended studs.

However you have the option of getting the spacers that have the studs already pressed in them. Project Kics sell them, and some other brands as well. They cost WAY more (around $120 or more)...but you won't need to get extended studs installed.
