STi wheel spacer question
If I get 5mm H&R spacers (as seen here http://optionimports.com/1025560.html), will I need to get longer studs on a 2004 NADM STi?

you should be fine without getting longer studs, but make sure you get enough turns of engagement 7-8 i think is a safe number of turns?
if you need longer studs, I have several sets of the Nismo 60mm extended studs that will fit perfectly on subarus. I'm runnin a set for my fronts and tehy're awsome. jsut let me know.

Thanks for the info but the whole point of this spacer check exercise for me is to avoid having to use longer studs.
5mm doesn't sound like too much but I foresee my choice of lugnuts and the wheels' dishing at the lug mounting points limiting the # of engagement rotations as well. Guess I won't truly know until I try.
Might be a better idea to just get proper wheels to avoid unnecessary bearing failure...
