Spacers - Where from and how much?!

[Shaun]

Hey guys been trying to hunt down some spacers purely because it would be nice to fill my arches a little as i know as soon as i put my 'new' alloys on they will be lost!
does anyone know where i can get some decent width spacers 20/25/30mm hubcentric of course with a 59.1mm bore?!
any experience or advice would be greatly appreciated (Y)

alloy wheel shops will be able to sell you / show you someone who does. Also tried ebay, wheelwhores, etc websites?

yes but i am looking at £200 for a set of four! and im thinking my wallet is crying...

eBay do 25mm clio ones which are 60.1mm bore. Or VW ones which are 57.1mm and would need boring out. No hubcentric 4-stud nissan ones though.

yeah have checked the bay have found some micra ones but at £100 a pair! just never fully understand why when a product gets popular they all of a sudden inflate the price!
carbon fibre is the same!

thanks anyways (Y)

You only need to step out the back, the front track is already wider than the rear.

see thats why i like these forums... you learn something new every now and then thankyou so i could just get away with some thin spacers as i fear the wheels will still be lost inside those arches. only time will tell

As it happened i looked just yesterday and the front is wider be 15mm iirc.

check out spacers they use on mini's n old cars with imperial pcd's.
they run extended studs and nice wide spacers. just got to find studs with the correct thread.
the pcd will be fine as they adjust within at leat 20mm and the mini's pcd is only 1mm out.
something like these:

Have you considered this type? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/32mm-Wide-Whe...vr_id=&cguid=dcea3b411260a0aad5423632fe9e89da

As the micra isn't hubcentric anyway I think they would work quite well. 32mm too.

I'm just gong to get my rims reversed, way more spaced out and safer than spacers and extended studs lol.
