Not hella flush but just plain ole flush with wheel spacers - watch lug bolt length!!!!


I added some 10mm spacers to my rear wheels today. I didn't like the inward look especially since my fronts were closer to flush.

I had tried my 15mm spacers from my oem flush set up but it was just a tad too much. The 10mm is perfect.

One thing I learned is OZ wheels use ball lug bolts like oem unlike cone which are generally used in the aftermarket industry. Another thing that was REALLY important to know is that the hub for OZ are thicker than oem. I had maybe 2mm of threading using extended bolts (pic below).

The bolt on the left is already extended but I had to be even longer ones to be safe!

Another tip is to always torque them down then in about a week retorque them.

Also check out my youtube channel with details about this set up.

extended bolt but still too short
much better and safer!!!


much better!!!!!
