Hi all,

i was was looking at getting some spacers for my 2012 WRX STi saloon to fill the arches better. I know that there is a debate on wether they are any good or not, though does anyone have any recommendations on which brands to go for and what size fits best - I was thinking H&R 20mm?

Also, I have the standard 18" Prodrive wheels and wondered do they fit as standard?

Thanks in advance,

I used Perrin 15mm spacers which use longer studs i.e. Old studs knocked out and new longer studs fitted thru the hubs with a 15mm hub-centric alloy spacer.
Personally I didn't want to bolt on a spacer to the hub and then use the 'spacer bolts' to attach the wheel.
Obviously cheap ones can break but better ones are absolutely fine - IIRC Andy Forrest used to run some on his car... enough said.

Thanks, so many mixed reviews about. I've been looking at the Perrin spacers, how difficult is it to replace the studs?

I didn't fit them ... but I was told 'they might be tough to knock out BUT were easy ,,,,

Perrin parts are very well made - up to 15mm and you get longerstuds.

i usually order from Rallysportdirect USA online or direct from Perrin USA.
VERY QUICK delivery plus a little import tax.
