drift_bear Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Since I've had to dip into the single fund to pay for a full respray, it also means I can't get new wheels for a while. So I'm planning on using spacers and filling out my arches better. Question is, what size of spacers will I get? My sizes are - 8.5" et 35 fronts 235/35/19 9.5" et 35 rears 265/35/19 (will be changing to 275/35/19 soon though) I have had arch work done by the previous owner, so have plenty space in the arches. Forgot to say, the car is lowered 35mm all round Edited July 10, 2014 by drift_bear (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'm thinking of getting 25mm for the front and 30mm for the front. That should take the wheels out an inch, will that be to far or perfect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraig Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I've got a set of hub centric 20s kicking about, you can try them first and then measure from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't have the car back until the end of the month mate, I'll just buy some and if they don't fit/look better then I'll sell them on lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I run the same size and offset on the rear as you Alex. I have 25mm hubcentrics on the rear. Have a look at the more recent pictures in my project thread in my signature to see how she sits. I have had my rear arches rolled and pulled by the way.

kraig Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Think 30mm may be too much bud, but obviously depends on your suspension setup and the previous arch work. I couldn't run the 20mm spacers on a 10j et45 (255/40/17) rear on stock arches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
