Need help with extended studs and spacers

So I have a 2007 Tl type S and my new rims coming in wont clear the brembos but I don't mind. I knew this was coming so I ordered the rims with a 35 offset so I can install a 10mm spacer on the front and a 15mm spacer on the rear. I want to install extended studs on the front and use a 10mm hubcentric spacer, then a hubcentric spacer to fit inbetween the rim and the spacer. For the rear I was thinking of doing extended studs aswell but since I want to do a 15mm spacer should I just install a ichiba v2 spacer with studs already built in?


Where can I get extended studs and spacers from? (specifically) Im in Canada so Id like to not get raped on shipping.


Also should I just do a 10mm spacer in the rear and run extended studs or make it easier and do a 15mm in the rear with studs built in?

^ my mistake. Im using one spacers but I need hubcentric rings to go on the spacer. I think I have it figured out. Ill run extended studs in the front with a 10mm spacer and then 15mm spacers with studs in the rear

Only place I found locally was JSpec Performance.
I believe the brand they sell are Akata mostly.
They also carry Ichiba.

The normal price for Ichiba V2 is $150, and V1s for $115.

So im down to picking brands and im clueless. Ive read so many different reviews and they are all over the place. Im thinking of going with ichiba v1 with extended studs in 10mm for the front and ichiba v2 adapters with built in studs for the rear.


Should I do that or just do the 10mm v1 on all 4 corners with extended studs (only because I heard extended studs are safer)
