Unless the AV6 studs are longer than my old Accord's studs, why wouldnt I run into the same problem? The difference between 5mm and 6.3mm is negligible as well.

I would think the studs on a V6 6GA are longer than a 4cylinder 4thgen. That assumption aside, it's really an issue of the fine line. You're right, 6.3 is not a far cry from 5, but with 5 one can get the appropriate number of turns with the lugnut, whereas with the 6.3 you can't. It's been said over and over that 5mm w/o changing studs is okay on our cars, but that it's the max. Several people including myself have been utilizing them with no issue. So knowing this, I have suggested it as an option for you because it would solve your dilemma.
If you're really concerned, get the 5mm H&R spacers that come with extended studs. They're not hard to change out.
Or keep looking, but I've never seen 2mm spacers myself.

I have never even heard of anyone using anything smaller than 5mm on our cars......why bother going with less....might as well use nothing.

I can understand where he's coming from, Derek. Afterall, we are a product of our experiences. 
But yeah if we are talking purely about moving wheels out for a better stance...I wouldn't bother with less than 5mm. But he just wants enough room to let the rim clear the caliper bracket.

i got the rear sway for 35 tl-s off of the 07 tl 6spd, this feels so much better, everytime i get the chance to do a big sweeper turn i can feel the difference
doesn't ever feel like its breaking loos anymore

Me neither. Hell, Im having a ***** of a time finding anything less than 5mm.
Exactly. 3mm is nothing. The brackets are solid metal and as long as i prepped/primed it after shaving it, there wouldnt be any issues.
Yeah, Im not looking to stance my car. Albeit, these wheels, stanced, on my 4x4 setup, might look pretty old skool, lol. Thats not the look im going for. I just want them to clear the brackets and to still be able to hang on enough that I can travel as much as I do.I can understand where he's coming from, Derek.

Like I said before, ITRs on my 4G were fine in town but anytime I got on the highway for a length of time, they'd shake. I dont want, nor need, that. If 5mm has been tried and tested on the AV6 with no issues, then I may go that route instead. I guess, when it boils down to it, this really is just the price you pay to have nice things, lol.

I was wondering if the side mirrors from a 3g tl would fit on my 02 coupe?

I also need to know about the front sway.. specifically any Acura OEM front sway w/ bushings. Got a buddy on a local forum who works for Acura, and may be able to get me this stuff cheap.
