  • Integra guys with spacers

    Alright so soon I'm doing coilovers and putting some slips on. I'm wanting to put a small spacer on just to make the wheels a little more flush. I'm wondering what size spacers you guys used and also if you had to get extended studs.

    Needs to be a DC or DB bc there was a guy saying you didn't have to have extended studs but his reference was an ek but a dc guy said you had to use ext. studs. Anyways I thought this would be the best place for this instead of an integra website (not a ton of guys using spacers yet)

    With a Honda standard lug stud, it's a good idea to replace them with extended types if you're going with anything larger than a +10mm spacer. The size of spacer needed for the OTS Rota Slipstreams (+42 offset) to achieve any kind of "flushness" is at least 15mm in my opinion (effectively making it a +27). Do not run the cheap "lightweight" eGay cast aluminum lug nuts if you choose to run a spacer without extending the lug studs (10mm max, don't forget).

    edit* Before you go doing this though, it's going to be a very good idea to roll and pull your rear quarter panels a smidge. (obviously)

    Best of luck!

      Well the wheels I'm running are 15x6.5 Slips with +34 offset. Also I don't do egay stuff.. I have a stud to fix so I'm trying to figure out if I'm gunna do extended studs and spacers or just get my honda stud and do no spacer.. It won't be a very big spacer bc I DD my gsr plus I live in Missouri in a rural area so I don't want to be way flush bc are roads are too crappy (sadly)

      Edit: also thanks for the info on that. This is all new to me so I'll take all the info I can get.
