Question In need of spacers...

I just put on some FD wheels with 205/55's on them and now I need some spacers for the front. I'm thinking that 10mm will be perfect with stock springs maybe a 5mm w/coils (but I'll prolly get 10mm anyway). Does anyone know where I can get a good set of spacers. I heard that H&R doesn't offer the products they used to, so I'm not really sure where to look.

I think you will be happier with proper sized tires than the spacers.

Stock 225/50 or 245/45.

I can get you those spacers. With FD wheels on a FC you'll need at least a 20mm spacer, netting you a 8" +30. with 225's it's perfect. I use 25mm spacers for the rear. Email me and i'll check stock. I run out of these soo quick. They are japanese hubcentric studded spacers. THe ones all the D1 guys are using.

You might have to wait for them, i'll see what we got.

Hey Rishie, I'm interested in those spacers, how much are they? I'm close by in Fremont, so no shipping involved.

Also, they are the kind that come with their own studs right? And they also come with nuts allowing them to bolt onto stock studs correct? If so, I really need a set of those! Please let me know! Thanks.

They are in stock.

20mm fronts and 25mm rears. No drilling or pressing required. You guys are gonna love these.

Price is $220 shipped without the spacer hubring, or $260.00 with the modular hubrings.

I've setup a thread in our own subforum as well. Here's the link:

Hey Rishie, you think it'll look ok if I run these spacers with stock TII wheels? I just want to move the wheels further outward, so it's not so tucked in. You think it'll move them too far out and maybe rub the fender?

Also, how does the modular hubrings work, just like the hubrings for wheels, except with a lip on the inside? I assume these hubrings will work with stock TII wheels also, and not only FD wheels? Thanks a million!

BTW, how much is it without the shipping, I'm local.

Yes these hubrings will work with stock T2 wheels. Yes these will work great with T2 rims. Only one thing i would have to check. Series 4 or S5 wheels? The hubring basically just slides in there, then has a hub area that sticks out beyond the spacer.

I like these because then you can use these on any car with same thread pitch and just get a different hubring. Without shipping likely the same because of sales tax.

I'll have these by Tuesday in my hands. They are already shipping to me.

Thanks, Rishie
