Wheel Guru's your help is needed
Sold my Factory ls430 wheels
(WHEEL SIZE: 18x7.5
WHEEL OFFSET: 45
PATTERN:5-114.3
HUB SIZE:60.1
BACK SPACING:6.02
and picked up a set of Mercedes Benz Monoblock Replica Wheels that are18x8, ET 35 ,5x114.3 and have 70mm hub bore.
I have already installed the hub centirc rings and the issue is the front wheels do no clear my calipers and i have added wheel spacers to allow them to clear BUT now my wheel studs do not have enough for me to bolt the lug nuts on.
Question-is there a factory set of wheel studs that i can use vs buying extended wheel studs or buying a wheel spacer that has wheel studs already on it?
What are my options ?

Re: Wheel Guru's your help is needed
That will work fine if you can deal with a spacer that's thick enough for stud seats and flush nuts. I usually go for a wheel with a different offset before even considering anything of that kind of thickness.
