okay need help again...

I got the bolt out, put the spacer on BUT

how do you tighten the bolts of the spacer onto the hub??!

the rotor keeps spinning and how tight do you tighten it?!?!?

 

I only could use a socket wrench to tighten as much as I can with it.... soo... i donnoooo

 

Okay, so I hand tightened with a 19mm socket wrench as far as I could.

is that the correct procedure?

also if anyone was wondering, no you do not need a fender roll, or rub with 25mm spacers in the rear with tein h-techs with springmount mod.
But I have the stock 245-40-19 in the rear.

AND I don't have anything in the back or trunk... so if you do it might rub.

 

someone should just post a DIY up. any on spacers?

 

i took pictures for ppl that want to diy. i will post them later. i just wanted to know if the way i tighten the spacer bolts on the wheel stud was right.
i didnt have an impact gun so lmk

 

make a diy!

 

in for the gang bang...i mean,pic. lol.

 

(Again, I am not responsible for any damages done to your vehicle, you should know your capability. I must say it is really easy to do though...)

It is not really hard to do...

You need Jack Stands (safer, I didn't use them though.)
A jack
Your lug nut wrench remover
19 mm w/ torque wrench (80-90lb)
an extended socket will also be a big help.

First take off the wheel of course, this a front wheel hub.

Remove that gold screw with a 12mm if you have it, you won't need it and will block the way of the spacer install.



Then install the spacer, remove the gold lugs from the spacer, and tighten them onto your hub studs.



Then install the wheel on



The process is the same for all 4 wheels, but the rear doesn't have the gold bolt you need to remove.

Heres pics for the front before and after.

Before




After

 

Also here is the pic for all those that are wondering about rubbing,

lowered on tein h-techs, spring mount mod.
245-40 tires.
nothing heavy in the back or trunk.
half gas tank.
25mm spacers
oem 19 rays.
fenders not rolled.





you will barely clear it; however, if you upgrade to 255-40, I am 99% sure you will need to roll your fenders, which I will do when I upgrade my tires.

 

Looks good. Spacer are in my future.

 

Very nice! I am seriously considering them. A few questions I'll appreciate the help.
1. Did you front and rear 25 mm?
2. Any difficulty fitting them on the hub( other than the gold screw!)?
3. Do you fell any difference while driving before and after?
4. Could you also tell us what brand you used, where you bought it from and how much you paid?
Thanks so much

 

Thanks for sharing

 

your the best loki.

 

1. rear 25mm front 20mm
2. no trouble
3. driving felt good, same as before, no vibration or anything, except it has a more aggressive stance
4. I used ichiba v2 hubcentric spacer, I love using the ichiba products.

And your welcome to everyone who enjoyed this diy

 

also I would not recommend an impact gun for this installation, at least that's what I heard from Lightsout, he said that he ran into trouble over torquing the spacer onto the hub.

So it is up to you.
