I've just had Chris at CDF Racing make me a few sets of 25mm spacers
(5x100 )
I can do a set of 4 spacers and a set of arches for £350 ( usually £400 )
Only 3 sets available for the minute

Darren, I have Rota Force Drift 18x8.5 245/40/18 . I have had to roll my rear arches. Would i need to cut my arches if i put this spacers on. And would the wheels sit inside these new arches for my wagon, as they are different from the other arches.
