Im after full set 10mm hubcentric wheels spacers and bolts does anybody know where i can get quality set from?? ive tried getting hold of "the wheel man" who used to get them, ive had no reply from him is he no longer on the forum?? :confused:
-
Can't go wrong with the H&R spacers imo mate :happy2:
DPM performance stock them and ECP have now started selling the H&R spacer and bolt range via their branches too..
-
Tbh 10mm doesn't do too much I've got tens on mine but the difference is negligible. ... I'll maybe post before and after pix later. I'd go 15-20 if I was buying again.
-
Thanks for advise guys :happy2: does anybody have any pics of 10mm spacers before and after shots?? i will be using monza and pescaras alloys!!!
-
I had some Forge 10mm ones, and they were quite good, depends what wheels you have.
-
I got mine from http://www.pwmotorsport.com/Catalogue.aspx?cId=15#Catalog1
-
I've used H&R spacers before and they were excellent. Gutted I had to sell them with my old car as I couldnt find my shorter (original) wheel bolts...

IMHO 10mm adds little really needs a lil more are 15's available?

Thanks for pics mate, :happy2: (Love the motor!!) h&r what brand going for, thay do 15mm spacers just worried may be too big? just want alloys flush with the arches has anybody tried 15mm spacers with monza pescaras alloys???
-
Yeah you don't want it too "corsa boy".
-
I've got 10mm H&R on both front and rear on mine, spot on for me :happy2:
-
Yea think gona go for h&r 10mm spacers aint cheap £200 set of 4 with bolts, but suppose you pay for what you get!!! 15mm would probably be 2 big, dont want it looking like a boy racer saxo :grin: Thanks all feedback lads!!!! :happy2:

Just out of interest are these spacers 10 mm either side so 20 mm in total or 10 mm in total so 5 mm a side?
-
I've got 10mm H&R on both front and rear on mine, spot on for me :happy2:
Beddie.. are yours just bolt thru spacers? No additional bolts?

Just regular Hubcentric ones Rich, so yeah bolt through but needing longer 41mm bolts which come with the spacers from H&R :happy2:

^^^ mine as pictured 10mm per side.
:happy2:

If it helps the "Wheel Man" who used to post on here is a lad called Ben.
I used him for some 12mm hubcentric spacers recently, in order to fit over my front brakes. They come with the longer bolts needed. His email is ben@performwheels.co.uk.
May be worth a mail and a mention of this forum.
