You should not need to do any trimming to your factory bolts in order to use the H&R 25mm DRA spacers.

no need to trim anything, just torque em to factory 101 ft-lbs and retorque after 100kms

i retorqued today and the spacers kept there torque setting, everything stayed perfectly torqued which makes me happy

i was always sceptical about spacers but these H&R 25s are excellent quality, hub-center is perfect and the fact that they come with low-pro bolts and bolt to hub then u use ur original bolts makes me feel better

looks much better
the wheel/tire looks deadly now
no vibrations
no difference other than the fact that i think it handles the corners a lil different seems to turn at a more higher progressive rate ounce u get the steering wheel after about 45* degrees

the picture in the garage taken of the left rear wheel is before install, the pic of the right side with the dog is after install

the picture in the truck shop was before install
