help with the 20mm spacer nuts - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Totally neglected the portion about the pockets on the back pad, but the nuts won't fit in. Doh.

I happened to be able to order the nut from ichiba USA , but still unsure if they're the same as the one on their 15mm spacers. Placed an order for 10 of em for $30 !

Also have a pending order from another seller on eBay just to make sure ...hopefuly they'll work .

Had the same problem with the stock wheels and same looking 20 mm spacers. The vendor, Precision European, said those were the smallest nuts they could get. I ended up filing the pockets in the back of the wheels a little where I could see the marks from the nuts rubbing. Then I torqued them down and they pressed on. It's a pain getting the wheels off though.

Yeah I don't want to mess around With the wheels nor going with a 25mm one. Luckily I got in touch with a couple vendors and ordered the short nuts. They'll be here sometimes next week , I'll give you an update the result, and if they're fit . So it'll be easier for you to take the wheels off
