Default Spacer's? help needed

does anyone make 7mm spacers, so that i can fit my brembo's with 17" steel wheels on a early newage.

Im going for a bit of a sleeper look and need to get the steelies to fit.

Iv got some 25mm longer wheel stud's (that go from the back of the hub) now i just need some 7mm spacers, to step the wheel out slightly. The wheels actually go over the brakes, but get caught on the front of the caliper, i have trial fitted them with 3 x 2.3mm washers, and they fit great.

Will look amazing with wheel trim's on. Going 100% sleeper look!

bought some 5 and 6mm spacers on ebay for my classic and they seamed fine (they are still on the car)

i was told that 8mm is the max safe amount for standard wheel studs, so be carefull

you wont get 5mm spacers on with standard wheel studs dude. I have had to use 25mm longer stud's to make it safe.

Thank's, i have found an engineering company near me to make me some spacers.
