HX wheels and ARP extended studs
We'll I wanted these wheels got them like this (next year they may be white), but for now I will live with them. Had to grind the caliper bracket down a little with the 5mm spacers for wheel clearance. Worked out well and I am happy with the set-up. Will be autoxing soon so this will ensure durability.
How they were before the ARP's
The bracket grinded down
The goods
I also put 5mm spacers in the rear to keep it not looking like the fronts sticks out more.
Enjoy

I would go with a better wheel spacer. A hub centric would be the best and safest. Raceland.com looks like a pretty quality product for only $49 a set. That's a good deal.
How much of a pain in the ass was the stud replacement? I know I replace 1 broken stud and I did it the lazy and painful way. I didn't remove the spindle at all and just used a die grinder to remove some metal off the stud to get it it. Also shaved the brake dust plat and what not.
