someone please help me with the install of the front 15mm spacer......i bought these akata spacers with no studs attached. i dont wanna return the front ones and use two different companies. i have the 20mm for the rear that come with studs. i jus need the size of the studs i would need with the 15mm for the front. wheel shops charge to much to do the work. i cant find diy anywhere.....thanks

If you bought them from akata, return them and tell them you want the 15mm with pressed studs on them. I have the 15mm and 20mm with pressed studs from akata so they should have them. It would be much easier to have the pressed studs as shops would charge you too much and a lot easier to go back from stock.

I agree.
I told you originally to ask the seller whether or not they had type 2's in stock for 15MM because I knew it exists. Why ask if you're not going to listen to the answer?

If you're hellbent on not returning, then take your stock lug (i'm sure you could google length) and add 5 or 10MM to it to make sure the stud would grab.

I was thinking about getting spacers as well. I heard it's not as safe as just getting rims with a better offset. Opinions?

theres nothing wrong with having two different brands of spacers. as long as the fronts are the same and the rears are the same, then you are fine. just return the 15mm with no studs and reorder.

plus you posted 2 NEW threads already....

if possible get wheels with a better offset always imo. i cant give you an explanation but if you visualize it, it will seem make sense. my UNeducated guess is that it has something to do with pressure/tension between the spacer and the wheel itself.

hope that helped
