I'm running some had them made it was about £200 for all 4 very well made pcd adapter really need to be about 20mm for strength

Sory to hijack this thread but, Jon, does this mean I can fit my hawkeye STi wheels onto my blob?

Dan

Who made them crispyk?

You sure can Dan:thumb:

Oooooooooo. Can I still buy from CDF? I heard something was going on with them.

Dan

You can't buy direct, but Lateral is one if their outlets iirc:thumb:

Always a catch. :( . Why is that I wonder ? I find that I go through another party so to speak, it goes pete tong.

Dan

Mark at lateral is a great guy to deal and they are based in Watford :thumb:

More like up in price:mad:

He farmed out the distribution because he was just so busy, but with Lateral you can't go wrong, he's in Watford next to Garage-D and his service is spot-on:thumb:

And with the spacers you may need to be careful with the width and offset of wheels to avoid and rubbing. I would say arch rolling may be needed.

We're made by a friend he works in a cnc company he can make them to exact spec so thickness bore size of you also want wheel bore, all made from aircraft grade billet aluminium If you want I can see if I can get some more made, and mine fit perfectly

Defo mate that would be great,PM me details and we can talk more:thumb:
They are brilliant quality from the pic!!

But with all these, we ARE talking wheel spacers aren't we?
With the resulting stresses on the hubs and suspension issues?

I mean.......why?

Old wives tale, no different to running high offset wheels and the additional strains are negligible. If a wheel bearing goes shortly after fitting it's likely that the bearings where on their way out anyway.

Mmmm. All good info. Cheers guys.

Dan

In all honesty Jeff if you we're talking 40mm plus then I'd agree but at 10-25mm it is as Jon says above,it's no different to a large offset wheel strain on the bearing.

Like the huge, ridiculous 6 inch spacers that chop shop fitted on there BMW. Wtf?

Dan

Exactly,now that would put undue stress on the bearing and it would fail no doubt before it's time!!

The hub centric ones are pretty good as the stud is under no greater strain due to the bolt on nature of the spacer with new mounted studs. At 20mm hub strain is unlikely IMHO and is something I'll be doing on my newage very soon. The CDF ones are stupid expensive at c.£300 (2 pairs), and I am still doing some reading about the best ones available. Do NOT want to spend lots of cash only to find they vibrate like a M'Fkr ! :(

Please let me know your results. Defo interested in these as I've wanted to fit my new hawker sti rims I bought brand new in error for years. I love them.

Dan

You can buy them from USA for less Ryan,just have look on ebay.com not the UK


Jura

Got a link Jura,I am rubbish at finding stuff on the internet lol.

Ryan if you're interested I might have a set of 20mm CDF spacers available soon. ;)
