WHO uses spacers !? Need your opinion ! Sun, 12 September 2004 09:18 Go to next message
Hi I am looking for spacers for my rims .. prolly about 5-6 ml thick plates .. 114.3 x 4 stud pattern

Where do I get them from ? Do wheel shops sell them ? i.e. Big O, Ozzy ?

Thanks !

Any automotive spares place should stock them?
They are nothing special, if you do metalwork or know anyone who does, get them to knock em up... it really is just a piece of circular metal 5mm thick or whateva with holes for the studs.
But cause it makes the stud "shorter", so the lugnuts bit enough onto the end, you mite want to get longer studs.
Well thats my problem....
And well the reason I say making they yourself with some precision measuring may be better, is because the ones I bought that were manufactured are for multistuds, and they just have big gaps, it is only the wheel being so tight against it which locks them in position...

Up to $55 ($88 if tyre needs taking off and refitting) a rim to fit custom spacers ... that does not include extending the studs ... seems a fair bit !

$20 otherwise .. any advise /issues from ppl that have spacers ?
