Angry Acorn Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 HI all, was wanting to know if I can safely put 10mm spacers on the standard studs and fit the rims or will I need to change the studs for longer? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Depends on the wheel style, if the wheel is thin around the nut hole then you may have enough thread to secure it, you would be better off with hubscentric spacers but think the smallest you can get are 15mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Acorn Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 hubscentric? :blink:whats that? i just need the spacers because my new rims arn't clearing my brakes in the front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 hubsecentric spacers bolt on too the hub, then you bolt the hubscentric spacer to the wheel its a much better way of using spacers imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkpower Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 What are the strongest hubcentric bolt on spacers available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Do you mean longest? I had 70mm ones on my rx7 a couple of years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 The ones in the pic are not hub centric, theyre just bolt on spacers. Hub Centric ones have a lip that matches and supports, the inner bore of the wheel, essentially doing the job of the hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkpower Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I mean which make of spacers are considered the best for strength and reliabiity. Eibach, H&R etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Hub centric below, the ones in the pic above are Lug centric ; Get hub centric, H&R and Eibach are reputable brands The Supra is 60.1 bore, H&R wont have the Supra model listed but the Lexus Gs300 is the same fitment http://www.bimmerperformancestore.com/store/pc/catalog/H&Rdetail.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkpower Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Nice one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Yeah you're right the ones in the pic are mine, I was showing the bolt on part, the ones Ive got on are the ones I used too run on the front wheels on my rx7, I had too fit em too the supra when I upgraded to uk spec brakes as my wheels dont clear the calipers. Jellybean do you have a link for them in that pic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
