Also to weigh in on the bolt on vs extended stud thing, I believe extended studs are safer, but bolt on are more than safe enough. At least for the Z1 ones, theyre built really well. That being said, I have almost brand new H&R 20mm extended stud spacers for sale (4 of them total) that I haven't taken the time to put on the for sale thread yet. $100/set (2).

I went with corners spacers since they had a deal when purchasing the swift springs. I made sure to use a dab of loctite and retorqued after driving around for a day.

I don't think they're safer. Not unless you can guaranty the strength of the stud extending. Seems scary to have that long of a stud holding your life on the line. Bolt on just seems safer. I've never had a wheel fall off so neither will the spacer or wheel and spacer.
