H&R 10mm spacer question

[stuntdoogie]

I have 16x7 e42 rota grids and want to install these spacers. Would i need to replace the stock studs for shorter ones for wheels to fit?

16x7 offset 42 won't fit on ? Or are you going for more of a flushed look with the spacer ?

I always get a little iffy with spacers . I hear a lot of stories about them "it's not safe it's not safe"

Make me wonder not many on the forums use them.

Quality hubcentric spacers are no more dangerous than just wheels with more offset.

The only thing i see that can go bad from spacers are the bearings if you go too far in offset. Adding 10mm would put my offset at 32mm. My main concern is the stock studs. Will they stick out too far out of the spacer which will prevent the wheel to sit flush on the spacer?

I have some 5 and 10 mm H&R spacers that came with longer studs, the 10mm are hub centric, the 5mm are not. I am not going to be able to use them so if interested let me know

Studs are not terribly difficult to install and a good idea when using spacers to ensure enough threads on the lugs nuts.

They are likely stronger than stock studs but I have not checked on that as did not intend to use them as have ARP race studs already installed.
