20mm over vs, stock hub bolts.
Note: this particular 20mm over bolts have 1.5mm pitch Toyota threads which go in faster and strips less easily, ideal for motorsports where time is money, and durability over repeated use is critical. (though its not THAT much difference...) Subaru uses 1.25 pitch on the hub bolts on FRS/BRZ and rendered my big collection of Toyota wheel nuts basically useless, so I changed them to Toyota pitch to allow use of them. More a matter of convenience for previous Toyota owners. One can just as get one for Nissan/Subaru and keep it 1.25 just as well.

A combinaiton of good set of long studs like this, and true high quality, accurately milled, "HUBCENTRIC" hub spacers, one can freely choose offset corrections to 20mm +/- using mild offset wheels, safely, without risky and cumbersome adapter plates.

Hub-centric in the case of the FRS/BRZ is 56mm hub, to be precisely centered and loaded.

im putting trd rims on mine and the hub is thicker than the stock rims. where can i get a set of these? and if you know where to get the m12x1.25 exteded ones too...

very nice wheels, but the 49+ offset is a weak sauce, they should've been somewhere around 33+ to 40+

I'm sorry the car isn't up to your standards...but it's MY car and I've never been a huge fan of the whole "Flush" movement so +49 is fine for me. That and custom offset SSR's are more money than I wish to spend and I'm not a huge fan of spacers. I may get 10mm spacers at a later date...but it's not a priority.

Oh S*ht I'm an idiot for not realising that you are just posting your brand new wheels, Congrats it looks good actually. I thought that you are looking opinions about offsets before buying ,
