I decided on the 1 inch spacers from Bora
Aluminum - anodized Black
It did take a while to arrive (during Covid) but then they sat for a few months until I got around to installing them
If you want a flush look, I think 1 inch is perfect.
Cool side note, the factory 18 inch rims I am running have "reliefs" or "cut outs" and therefore don't require ME to shorten or cut my existing wheel studs.
I set everything to 100 ft-lbs and will recheck after 50 miles
EDIT - (FSM spec is 76 ft-lbs, so I will go back and set these to 80 instead of 100)
The front and rear are location specific.
Fronts have multi-groove hub, keep trying to fit it until the hub sits flush.
Rear fits any way you install it.
On install, line up the air valve with the wording on the spacer = OCD all matches/lines up.
Only other issue was the locking lug nut I had was about 1/8 to 1/4 shorter thread engagement and I had one locking lug nut that started to strip.
So, I decided to remove all locking lug nuts and use regular nuts with no further issues.
