    I just bought a set of Stradali wheels for my 360 which has stock wheels and spacers on it right now . I would like to go with the titanium lug bolts but I am not sure if I can run them with the spacers or I should just ditch the spacers . the bolts I have in there right now are a 1/2 longer than stock ones .

    You might want to ditch the spacers as I think the Stradale wheels are larger. At least they are taller as 19s right? My OZs are wider at 8.5 front and 10.5 rear but still 18s. Meaty like the Challenge wheels Even stock fronts will catch the fender lip at full lock, especially if you are lowered at all. Mine did 5 times in one year! So I rolled them. Mild, short arc and came out well. Use heat and the proper tool and go slow (I still have it). Only gave it like a 45' up angle against the wx strip. Worked great.i gave to use spacers. 11mm front 25mm rear. Ricambi kits are top notch. And of course you need the proper length bolts.

    Hill Engineering in the UK (the guys that make the improved tensioner bearings, for example) sell longer length titanium bolts to fit the 360, for use with spacers where you still want to bolt the wheel through the spacer to the hub.
    I’m not associated with their company but I’m considering getting some spacers to go with my 18” 360Challenge (not CS) wheels and will want longer titanium bolts to go with them.
