i'm not sure if colored lugs will work on my car unless i did a big brake kit.

i have yellow overlays on my fogs in front... that's about the only colorful thing on the car

Im sorry but how is paying ANYTHING for a conversion kit worth it? What are the benefits? Maybe this is a newby question but 200 to get rid of my lug studs is not worth it

75mm should work. i suppose i won't be able to fit more than a 12mm spacer on my rear wheels (9.5x19 +35 w/ 275 tire)

in the real world, nothing really unless you swap out wheels or spacers often

looks nicer than the oem lugs though

You can slip on and off spacers safely without switching to the right length lugbolts.

Some reported you can mount the wheels on easier ( I personally think throwing the wheel on the hub and rotating the wheel to match holes is easier )

You have many more choices with the color and style of tuner lugnuts

Looks more aggressive ? (personal taste)

Some ppl spend thousands on wheels so whats a couple hundred bucks for nuts/stud?
Sure keep your 200 and spend it on beers its your life lol.

tofu the 90mm is recommended for 15mm+

One of the biggest benefits is being able to change your wheels with ease. There is no more having to line up the lug hole on the wheel to the hub. A 2nd being as 'tee212' stated, it makes it especially easier for those people with spacers.

The 75mm kit will definitely accommodate a 12mm spacer. We also carry spacers if you are looking for those as well and can give you an awesome combo packaged price.

Give me a call tomorrow with any other questions you may have or to order the conversion kit.

With that offset, a 12mm would be all you need. Actually, I think that would be perfect with your setup.

i ended up going with the apex stud kit.

bavx didn't want to honor the "Sale Price: $99.99" (http://www.bavarianx.com/RSD_Black_W...s.1215.75b.htm) on their website because of an "error" which they oddly still haven't had the time to fix over the period of a week.
