Okay I recently put 02wrx struts on my obw and now I have a mad case of ass sag..
I was looking at strut spacers from paranoid fabrications and the price is great...
So what will be the max size of spacer without changing the mount bolt..
Is 1/2in good?

3/8th inch is the max you can run without longer studs.

If I was you, I would replace the studs with longer ones anyways. It will only take you an extra 10 minutes and it will allow you the option to run a spacer larger than 3/8th inch if you need to and it will also allow you to run a rear strut bar on top of the spacer if you need to.

They didnt sell the longer studs when I did mine and I tried to find some longer replacement studs to no avail. I would do the studs in a heartbeat.

Harry nailed it.
If you use the wagon struts (which I realize it's a bit too late), you have much less sag.
