Spacers on dual pattern wheels?
Bruh. I took 21 credits in math in College but I can't figure this shit out.
I want to run some spacers on my xxr 527 5x100/5x112 but I don't know how to make this work. What kind of spacers do I need? Or do I need adapters? Usually it's pretty simple when it's one thread pattern but with wheels like these, how do you solve this issue?

Why not just a 5x100 spacer? You're not using a solar powered calculator at night, are you?

What offset are your wheels? How much poke do you want?
5x100 hubcentric spacers with a hub bore 56.1 are what you want. Just figure out how thick.

Get bolt-through spacers and get longer studs pressed in the hubs. |

If you add a 20mm spacer, your wheels will poke like 9" +35 wheels. I have similar 18x8 +45 with a 1" spacer added. Im lowered 1" and have approx -1.4 front camber.
I'd get 20mm front and 25mm rear spacers. The wheels will have the same poke then. It will look great!

I had 5mm extended studs, but then got bolt on spacers. I cut them to length. It is possible.

Yep, definitely did not work without alterations. The oem stud sticks out just enough to hit back of the wheel, causing a gap where there shouldn't be one.
Now I can either: Cut oem studs Buy new, shorter studs Buy adapters (which for the cost isn't worth it) Buy new wheels altogether and sell mine. This might be worth it considering I'm not too sure about cutting up the studs

... or just get longer wheel studs and open-ended lug nuts to use with your spacers.
If installing studs is too much work for what you want to do, just get new wheels. |

Is the issue just on the 20mm spacers or both?
I cut 10 studs in under an hour with a really dull old hacksaw. Cleaned up the tips with a file. I thread a nut onto the stud, cut it, unthread the nut which helps "clean up" the threads, and file the end carefully. Replacing the studs is not that complicated. I did my front ones in about an hour. The rear takes a bit longer. Spacers are a compromise for sure. Getting perfect width and offset wheels would be ideal. Sadly, the wheels I wanted only came in high (42 & 45) offsets. I have 5mm, 10mm, 12mm, and 25mm spacers to mess with.
