Steeda has said anything 1” and below has to cut the studs.

Eibach has a 25mm and 30mm spacers.
25mm=0.984inches
30mm=1.181inches

Anyone running with the Eibach ? If so, did you have to cut ?

If you're going to run spacers, get https://www.motorsport-tech.com/land/toyotac_land.html they are high quality and are hub centric and you can get them any thickness you want. Most run at least 1.25" then the studs just barely stick out and they will fit into the recessed pockets on the back of the wheel so you don't have to cut them.

Dont 1.25 stick out past the fenders ? And when I say stick out I mean the wheels just a little.

I have no clue what recessed pockets on the back of the wheel means. I’m such a noob. Sorry

If you're running factory wheels, then you can run 1.25 front and 1.5 rear and sit flush

Look at this pic, see the recessed pockets between the lug holes? That is what I was talking about. If you have factory 20's you will have to open up the pocket a little but the 21's fit just fine.
