Wheel Spacers

The instal of the A P Racing front brakes required use of 3mm spacers.

Second gen Forester wheels accomodate the 310mm rotors and calipers with lots of room. The first gens I'm using needed spacers.

Should I use longer studs, and if so where can they be obtained

3 mm i wouldnt worry about just make sure your torque them right. i know that once you really need new studs, not sure about every company, but i know H&R actually has studs in the spacers

I've always been told that your lug nuts should engage the stud for at least its diameter. So what is that, about 6-7 threads or so?

Using McGard spline drive lug nuts torqued to spec.

5 out of 6 threads engaged.
