L33 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Does any one have some standard uk wheels i can borrow/rent? My build is pretty much done but my alloys dont fit over my brakes at the front so ive had to order some spacers which could take a couple weeks to arrive, if i could get hold of some uk alloys i can start running my engine in then fit my alloys when the spacers arrive. If some one could help of would be great and you will get them back. 07891039955 Cheers Lee Edited July 28, 2009 by L33 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Have you ordered hub adapters? If not you will need longer wheel studs bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 yea these ones bolt onto the hub then have threads attached to them that fit onto my wheels and come with nuts to secure wheel to spacer! ordered 20mm ones, £125 quid a pair!! only got them for the front tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Coolio, as long as your wheels are webbed you won't have an issue. I had to buff down the tips of my studs so that they wouldn't foul on the wheels, as mine weren't webbed. Mine were 25mm too so you will have 5mm more interference to worry about. I just sold them too lol. 20mm spacers on the front though? Are you fitting overfenders or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share Posted August 1, 2009 No im not but possibly future plan, i needed them to fit my uk brakes as i cant afford new wheels! They company i ordered them did say i might need to cut down my studs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They company i ordered them did say i might need to cut down my studs As i said, that depends if your wheels are webbed or not, check them 20mm really is absolutely loads though. Are you sure you need so much? Most people use 5/10mm to clear the UK's lol. 20mm is massive, must have the same wheels as clarky666 as he is having the same trouble.
