Wheel advice
Great forum and I appreciate any help you all are willing to give. I'm trying to figure out whether a square setup will work:
Flow One F5s; 20x10 et40; 12mm spacers front; and 10mm spacers in the rear. I love the look of the Flow One F5s and they're super light. There is a great deal on the 20x10s on TireRack, but they're listed as "rear only." I can't find 20x8.5s anywhere. Plus, I'm not really crazy about losing an inch of width from my OEM fronts - I'd actually like to go with wider tires than OEM. I don't know anything about wheels sizing and this will be my first aftermarket set. But based on the wheel math I taught myself today . . . the F5 square set up and spacers (i) should be the safe on clearance and (ii) will give me approximately the the same fitment as adding 10mm spacers to my OEM 765Ms. Am I wrong? |

G@#da*&it. Pretty sure my wheel math wasn't the problem. The 20x10s have a 5x114 bolt pattern.
Same question . . . but now I'm considering a 20x9.5 et45 with 20mm spacers front and rear. Seems like a lot of spacer. |

tbh I got smaller studs that allow for running 5x114. I ended up going with a different set of wheels so I didn't need them. I think running 5x114 would look better due to the size offered.
Sell you the studs for a good deal if you're interested.

I'm definitely interested in the buying studs if that's the case. Would I need to swap the studs back to run my oem wheels? |

You screw in new studs with thread lock and that's it. You can run 5x112 and 5x114...I recommend getting Amazon spacers. Fraction of the price compared to others. You can run oem wheels.
