Hi mate tried them but smapped when puttting on as I needed thicker spacers, they came against my original bolts when tightened so lost confidence and never used them sorry

I need to add here that the spacers in question wasn't fitted correctly.

The incorrect nuts were used to bolt the spacer onto the car and when the wheel was tighten up it popped the back of the spacer out.

Our spacers are perfectly save

how much are they? and do they put more pressure on wheel bearings etc.? the plan was to stick 18x10 wheels with 265 tyres on with abw arches but not sure now.. also heard converter is 20mm so may bring them out too much.

hmm

Hey,

They retail at £260 for the set, but I can do 15% off that.. I have one set of 15mm left in stock which I believe will be perfect for your aches, I will check with Darren as we make these for him to .
15-20mm will give you no grief on your bearings

do you already have the arches done?


thanks chris
