    No. I never installed the 1/2” spacer. Didn’t trust it. Stock Studs were Definitely to short.

    i've never run spacers, but a longer shank lug nut seems to be a fix, vs longer studs...

    I had extended lug nuts. Still didn’t feel right. Also with the 1/2 spacer you will be loosing your 106mm hub centric then you are depending on possibly lug centric. Vibration. This is just my experience, you might have better luck. If it fails, it could be a real bad situation.

    Thanks for all the replies. I'm going to leave it, might scooch the bed over a little just to cover up the aesthetics.

    maybe a stupid question but you are 100% sure all new rims are the same offset? i have gotten a set before for an older s2000 and 1 of the 4 rims was sent with the wrong offset.

    Update. So with my aftermarket wheels and tires. I ended up with bolt on hub-centric wheel spacers. Being that mine was 3/4 to passenger side. I installed a 1 1/2 spacer to drivers rear and 3/4” spacers to others. (FYI 3/4 spacer smallest stud spacer you can get) Bora makes a great spacer. Trustworthy. Finally my truck look balanced.
    Good luck.

    this is a torx bit it is used to remove a bolt with a star in the center not a +(Philips) or a l (flat).
