Yes I'm new here. I'm going with 18x10.5 on the rear and I'd like to know what spacers to get and where?

Depending on some variable which you didn't mention (tire size, brand, is your car lowered, brand of wheels), you might not even need wheel spacers. If you do, you might be able to get by with 1/8" spacers. If that's the case, then spacers from MM are OK. If you need more spacer than that, do yourself a favor and get the hubcentric spacers from LFP (see mj8's post above). I would personally not feel good about 1/4-3/8" NON-hubcentric spacers on my car.

If you're just using spacers for looks with the stock wheels, get the 1" spacers from MM.

Yes. You'll barely get 5-6 revolutions of the stock lugnuts with a 3/8" spacer. That's walking the fine line as far as safety goes.mavado007 said:Will I need to buy longer lug nuts with the LFP 3/8''?
The factory wheel studs are long enough to allow the use of 1/8" and 1/4" thick wheel spacers with most wheels. You must check the amount of thread engagement on your car to ensure that at least 6 threads are fully engaged after installing the wheel spacer.
