If you are using longer studs without the spacers you will need extended lugs, or open lugs.
You might just be finding an anomoly with the 350Z Rays wheels, not sure. Perhaps take them to a machinist and see if you can increase the hub depth. Won't do any damage to the wheel so long as there is sufficient meat there, and you may eliminate the issue altogether. I've never tried using them on those. I know we use them on my car (Work VS-TX), and one of our other Z's here (on a set of Fikse's and a set of Volks) and they work flawlessly, no vibration, etc
Any wheel running the type 2 needs the extra holes in the back, or unfortunately they won't fit - you would need to use the type 1's for that scenario |
That's funny, I have the H&R spacers in my hand, they haven't been mounted on the car yet, and the hubring is a part of the spacer, machined as one piece, so apparantly everyone else is doing the hubring as a separate piece, except H&R. I'm not stating that a two piece would perform differently, but I opted for the one piece H&Rs.
