pics w/ the wheels on the car?....also how wide are the wheels? prob an 18x7.5 which means your offset is still a bit low....I dont think these would sit flush yet....But I would have to see wheels on the car...

If you bought 7.5mm spacers, you're your best bet to knowing if it will sit flush. Where your wheels now, if your moved them out 7.5mm or basically a centimeter, does it sit flush? If yes then yes, if not.. then you'd need a bigger spacer.

You should be alright with 7.5mm but if you go any bigger with the spacers you'll need to put in longer studs to be safe.

On the studs, if you can get 9-10 turns of the lug nuts; you should be safe. Otherwise you may need countersink (extented) lug nuts if acceptable for your wheels or as 4Cyl'erThriller posted, it might need longer studs. Better safe than sorry.

They're hubcentric.. meaning you don't have to worry about the wheels being off center. The studs alone aren't enough to center the wheel, there will still be a little play. Having hubcentric rings will allow the wheel to be dead center so there aren't any vibrations when driving.
