Another spacer question

craniac24 · 04-05-2010, 10:11 AM

Ok...so I've spent about an hour reading all the stuff here about spacers, and I'm pretty sure all I've accomplished is getting dizzy from all the information out there. So...I thought maybe you guys could just answer a specific question for me so I can make sense of it all! So here goes...

If I want to do H&R spacers, 15mm in the front and 20mm in the rear, do I need the stud replacement model (DRS) or will the bolt on work (DRM)? I've read a lot about the Ichiba, but not so much on the H&Rs.

My understanding was that the fronts would requre stud replacement in the case, but the rears would be ok with bolt ons (or...maybe I have that backwards!) But the guys over at Vinny Ten racing are saying that the bolt on version will work on all 4 wheels. So now...I'm thoroughly confused! Can you guys help? By the way...I'm on the stock 19 inch wheels.

Oh...one more thing. I see that most people here use the SPC camber kit, but Vinny Ten is recommending the Eibach. Anyone here use that particular kit?
Thanks in advance.

I don't think H&R has 20mm bolt ons.
but for 15mm front, you need stud replacement.

Most have gone with 15mm / 20mm DRS, or 15 or 20mm DRS front / 25mm DRM rear, depending on the look you want.

The SPC and Eibach camber kits are identical, as SPC makes the kit for Eibach. There is no difference. Eibach tend to be slightly more expensive, which is why you'll see most guys running SPC.

Let me know if I can help with either item, all in stock..

Nice find...but why is everyone else saying that 15mm V2 won't work in the front??

If you look at the picture, the 2010 sport wheels have a deeper indentation than the 2009 wheels. You may want to look at the back of your wheels.
