get 5mm spacers with a 64.1mm hub bore. I got mine from showstoppers, they are h&r

what offset are you running

[qnzjay69]

I'm not to sure I bought them off a friend who has an 09 si

You will definitely need to measure the offset of the wheels if you don't know them, otherwise we can't help you crunch numbers and tell you exactly what you need. Look here:

If they're rotas it'll say on the inside of the wheel along with the width

5mm spacers are good

[qnzjay69]

Will I need extended lugs? It comes with it already seperate from the spacer tho

[RHCP0801]

no, 5mm is the biggest you can go without needing extended lugs. I have had 5mm spacers on for years without extended lugs and have been perfectly fine

get a 13mm spacer

17x8 +35 is nice and flush. no poke.

Thanks for the help everyone =)

For 5mm, you will not need extended lugs (studs?). Correct me if I am wrong, but I think you can go up to a 10mm with stock studs.
