Wheel Spacers

[GhostFace]

ive search and alot of people have mixed opinions about them

i wanna know if its perfectly fine to drive with them on a daily driver

and i mean bolt on spacers, probably 20mm?


i have a set of buddyclub p1 racing 2 wheels 17x7.5 +42 offset

i know the offset sucks, but i like these wheels alot, so would bolt on spacers or any spacers for that matter be safe/fine to drive with?

these for example http://www.optionimports.com/kiprwhsp.html

im driving a 1990 240sx and would like to get coilovers soon

Those are nice spacers and perfectly fine to dive on every day, but you should at least get 25's. There might be an issue with the end of the lugs sticking out past the spacer with 20's just a hair. Not to mention to be jDm tYt3 you need to be flush!

lol! damn jdm bs, i do admit some "jdm" stuff looks nice, but i only want wheel spacers so i could put my wheels to use cuz of their sorry ass offset

i have a set of kics and i havnt had any problems but i dont drive my car much

i have custom 20 mm bolt ons and i have been running them almost one year now with some hard driving and i have had no problems

they are hubcentric also

call up the wheel supply www.thewheelsupply.com and ask for sander, he can get them custom for you (hubcentric....this is important)

do i need them in the rear? or just up front only

[sticky240]

while on the subject, has anyone bought spacers like this and also bought hubcentric rings for proper fitment?

If so, what size rings?

my friend has been running spacers for a little over a year now and he drives hard with tein suspension... he rides with spacers and extended nismo studs and he hasnt had any problem with them...

sorry to jack the thread but since we're on the subject of offset and spacers, i have 17x8 with a +35mm offset front and back... the front sits ok, but im probably going to roll my fenders and get either a 5 or 10mm spacer for the front...but for the rear what size spacer do you think i should get... i am going to roll my fender, and i dont tuck on my drop... probably an inch or an inch and a half wheel to fender gap..

i bet driving on street is fine, but i remember watching the old best motorings were the corollas were racing and one of the guys tire fell of because of the wheel spacer. but that car is almost full 0ut race car

i believe mike2016 who had the groupbuy said he ran 25mm spacers with some hard driving. ask him he would know.

use a ruler and measure how much space till the tire hits the rolled fender, then buy a spacer that will match up how closeyou want hte tire to the fender. best way around it.


wheeladapters.com best place for custom spacers. make sure they are hubcentric
