Thanks RZ, do you have a preference for brands and a vendor? How much of a bitch are these to put on? I've honestly never done them.

I've not installed them on a Z, but they should be easy. The rears just bolt on, the front you will need to replace the studs. There's a DIY on here for that.


There's a lot of debate on which brands to go with. I ran Ichiba on my S with no issues, no experience with anything else.

I know some people have had issues with the HC ring breaking off on the H and R's.

for 20+ mm you do not need to replace the studs on the fronts... Only for >20mm spacers as the wheels do not have the indentions for the original studs.
