Wow that would be great. Let me check out the lugs and see about getting back to you.

This is where I got my spacers.
http://www.wheeladapter.com/wheel_spacers.php I wanted something that was BOTH WHEEL and HUB centric. I can tell you that when I go to remove rear wheels, these spacers are locked into the wheel. No slop. Again, mine are 18mm thick.

BTW, looked at the lugs. All I could see is the word METRIC and then SF 9.

I just trimmed about a 1/4" of the stud off flush with the adapter. I have had them on now for several years with 0 issues, I believe I paid around $100 for the 2 rears

I'm wondering why some people choose adapters over longer studs and spacers. Is there some sort of advantage? Seems like longer studs would be simpler (in design), stronger and safer, plus you're not limited to a minimum thickness.
Also seems like longer studs would be cheaper, too, but I haven't found them at reasonable prices yet.

I chose the adapter route because if I wanted to install new wheels with the correct offset (OEM/aftermarket) I wouldn't have to change the studs for a 2nd time. It takes less than a minute to remove the adapter. I bought quality adapters and have never had an issue with some hard driving on them.
