The nuts on the arms are big. that's all I remember from my install. Also you could certainly measure the studs with a micrometer but im terrible with precision instruments. I prefer to twist on my lugs and count the turns. A 3mm spacer should be fine. 5mm will most likely need extended studs. 10mm - definitely. 15mm get an Ichiba V2 and the wheel might clear the stock studs without grinding. Depends on the wheel though.

I've got one in my closet. I only ride it once a year. It is my Holy Grail. I love it and I intend to be buried with it. If you had one I was gonna beg you to sell it to me.

Adapters make it so you don't need to press in longer studs. I was also told to never exceed 5mm spacer on factory studs. With ur factory offset of +45 and the adapters it will put ur 17x7 with a +25 offset

Ur wheels will poke out an extra 20mm than they are now. Or about 4/5 of an inch.

I hope this helps!
