H&Rs.. but depending on the size you'd need to do stud replacement of the OEM ones. vs just bolt on. The ichibas will require the "crush ring" solution if you will be running the stock rims. Kics spacers would be the alternate bolt on spacer to get.
Search for spacers for more info there are a bunch of threads on it.

Oh. Welcome to the forum

I think all spacers are pretty much the same, except some are made hubcentic and others req separate hub centric rings. Some people swear by h&r's, others ichiba's. I think vibrations are more improper installations or wrong fitment. I just ordered 15mm bolt on type 2 ichibas, so I'll let you know when they are installed. Ordered from the vendor section 135.00 shipped

I've used HR on my FX, and had Ichiba's on my coupe but took them off due to vibrations.
Go with the HR's.

I'm using H&R and have used them on all previous cars without any problems.

I have ichiba V2. They vibrate, took them off reinstalled, still vibrate but less than before. Haven't tried the copper crush method yet. Not terribly impressed with them. Two piece spacer/hubring is a fail design. It seems like it was made so that they can just use generic spacers and swap out hub rings, which is what causes the vibration problem.

i have 15mm h&r and had to swap the studs. i do not have any problem. and i also think they are safer because with the extended stud, when you tighten the lugs everything is tightened together. opposed to the bolt on spacers where you bolt them to the stock studs and then you wheel to the built in studs. if your bolt on spacer is loose you cant check it unless you take the wheels off.
go with the h&r

Hey ruckus, do you have any pics with the 15mm H&Rs and did you have to cut your liner? I've got the same sitting in a box, but am thinking of lower profile tires on stock wheels on a vert. Right now, i'm just a little bit tucked.

i dont' have any pics with the stocks on(have my dcr's on now), but they fit good with the stocks not rubbing or anything and i didn't have to cut the liner. when i had the 15mm and stocks i was dropped on my coils which were lower than eibach im not sure if the offsets are different on the vert but there was no problems and didn't have to trim or cut anything

Ok. Thanks. The vert is just a wee bit heavy. I plan to go with low profile tires when the stockies wear out and will likley have to trim the liner.
