Do You Have to Cut Studs for Integra Type S Spacers?

No, you don’t have to cut the stock wheel studs for Acura Integra Type S spacers. Simply speaking, if the wheel pockets are deep enough to contain the protruding studs, there is no need to trim any OEM studs. So, the first thing is to check the inside of the wheels and make sure the mounting plate has pockets machines into it and isn’t solid. Then measure the cavity in your wheels to check out how much it will allow for the stud to go past the Integra Type S spacers.

Remove one wheel and measure how long the OEM wheel stud is (the protruding part of the wheel hub). If the wheel pockets depth + spacer thick ≥ stud length, then these Integra Type S spacers will fit properly. For example, if the protruding OEM car stud length is 25mm and the wheel pocket depth is 6mm, then you can put 20mm spacers on your Acura Integra Type S with no problem. It is highly recommended to process this according to the wheel structure and the advice of the experts.

Do I Need Extended Lugs for Integra Type S Spacers?

Generally, 5-12mm Acura Integra Type S spacers need extended lug studs to ensure proper thread engagement. This type of wheel spacer doesn’t come with pressed-in wheel studs, so you have to replace the stock wheel studs. Tire engineers explain that only if the stud thread is long enough can the studs provide proper clamping force to keep these Integra Type S spacers and wheels balanced. BONOSS provides ISO grade 12.9 wheel studs to ensure a strong wheel-spacer-hub connection.

These BONOSS forged wheel studs have achieved ISO standard grade 12.9, tensile strength≥ 1,220 MPa, limited life range test ≥ 2,000,000 stress cycles without damage, ultimate tensile load≥152,000 N, hardness (HV) ≥ 395, NSS ≥ 500H. These BONOSS wheel studs are approved by over 66 SGS TÜV test reports. High-strength wheel studs and nuts ensure a strong wheel-spacer-hub connection. With such high-strength extended wheel studs, it is worry-free to use Acura Integra Type S spacers.

Do Integra Type S Spacers Affect Handling?

Proper Integra Type S wheel spacers can always fit a vehicle without hurting anything. Installing wheel spacers is one of the easiest and simplest ways to boost handling. By moving the wheels and tires outwards, they provide better traction, handling, and stability. The wheels are set apart more, providing better traction and improving your car’s grip on the pavement. With these Integra Type S spacers, you will experience better control especially when cornering.

What’s better, BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers are designed with heat dissipation grooves to make brake cooling better. The heat dissipation grooves behind the spacers boost the cooling efficiency, reducing brake thermal decay, and improving road safety. Brakes tend to fail quickly when cooling efficiency is poor. To some extent, BONOSS forged active cooling Integra Type S spacers extend the longevity of your performance brake kits.
