? to anyone with wheel spacers.... the confusion never ends!!! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have some 5 lug hubs (2 of which I bought new off ebay. other two are rear z32s) which I will be using for a conversion and just got my 20mm H&R spacers.

The spacers do not fit flush against the hub because of a small lip towards the bottom of the center of the hub and there is no cutout in the center bore of the spacers for that small lip.
The spacers have a 66.2mm center bore which is what the TOP of the hub is and it slips on great until it hits that small lip on the bottom of the shaft/hub making a small gap between the spacer and the flat part of the hub.

So how the hell are you guys getting your spacers to fit against the hub??? Id imagine all H&Rs come like that since I got 2 sets... and im pretty sure all S14 hubs have that lil lip on the hub.

Anybody know of any 20mm hub/wheelcentric spacers that will fit on S14 hubs w/ the lip?
Im about to send these H&Rs back

Oh and the part #s on both sets of spacers are 4065662 which is for S14s

I vote send them back and buy Cobra wheels. For the price of 2 spacers you have almost bought two new Cobra replicas which require no spacers i.e.: 17x10.5 +27...

Hella USDM tyte.

No experience with the 5 lug spacers though.

krustindumm · 04-08-2006, 03:06 AM

are you test fitting them with rotors on them?

AzNCmB · 04-08-2006, 08:38 AM

i agree with 240shorty...buy my cobra wheels....only a PAIR ...17x9 +24mm offset... $200+shipping

Jason@performance · 04-08-2006, 09:10 AM

What is the part number on the other H&R Spacers?

If they were for a Z32 they should fit no problem...

But it sounds like the ones you got on ebay are for a car with a 5x114.3 but a smaller hub bore...

doesn't sound like it to me. You do realize they are susposed to go in between the wheel and the rotor right?

az_240 · 04-08-2006, 10:20 AM

so the spacers rest against the rotor? (wheel)(spacer)(rotor)

doh

Now you got it! Now go put your spacers on correctly and be happy

Dousan_PG · 04-08-2006, 10:38 AM

wow
please be careful.

**ThatGuy** · 04-08-2006, 12:56 PM

How in the heck did you expect your rotors to line up inside the calipers if you spaced them 20mm out?

I agree with Dousan, please, BE CAREFUL!

az_240 · 04-08-2006, 01:18 PM
