Any issue with spacers on my OEM 19" tittniums? I've got some 10mm (or 12mm?) spacers I use on my winter wheels. I'm on OEM suspension and brakes. Any issues? With 10mm spacer - can I still retain the stock lugs?
Thanks guys

No u need new lugs, otherwise shouldn't be any issues. Don't go anything more than 10mm in the front to avoid rubbing, 12mm is fine for the rear. Also Torque to higher than stock, so say 95ft-lb should be good.

I know there have been detailed pictures ad nauseam with spacers on lowered cars. Anyone have any detailed pictures with the stock height and rotors?

What would I be looking for with new lugs? Shorter cap height?

Your new lugs should have thread length that is longer than the OEM lugs by the thickness of the spacer. For example, if you add a 10mm spacer, the new lug should be 10mm longer than the OEM lugs.

In addition to ensuring you get the proper length (and too long is just as bad as too short), also make sure to get the proper seat for your wheels.
