Well Gang , my Is is getting reshod , with new Yokohamas and also getting the wheels refurb'd , anyone use spacers to push the wheels out in the arch a bit? I'm on standard 5 spoke 17's . Any suggestions on size of spacer , or stories good or bad?

can put more strain on bearings, and you will need longer studs too.
but given the right spacer, can look very nice indeed

I've got 15mm spacers on the front ot allow the Standard wheels to fit over Supra calipers,

Rather than use longer bolts i used spacers that have bolts built in, i.e. you bolt the spacers to the hub and then the wheels to the spacer.
The standard rims have gaps in the rear of the hub to allow the excess bolt thread to rest so they fit perfectly.

and how did it look mate?

Where did you get them from?

I am shocked at the price of spacers! all they are are fancy machined pieces of metal, and they want ~£100!!!

Use hubcentric spacers. That way they centre the spacer and wheel correctly. Saves a lot of balancing problems.

Well i've changed spacers now to H&R which come with longer bolts but they are hubcentric as T7RY B says.

And yeah £100 delivered is about right mate, though i got my second set of Ebay for about £60 cause some guy had bought ones that were too big or something.
