Looking for a pic for reference.

I'm in the processes of swapping out my whole suspension.. what I'm looking for is anyone that has pictures of a "Hub Centric" spacer attached to a BBK rotor. I'm trying to get an idea on how these will fit my rotors. Thanks

About to do the same for aftermarket brembo rotors! Thinking of powdercoating the spacers along with the rotor hat so it can blend in but still unsure! Ill post up once i get that set up finished!

Not sure yet but its a choice between a 15mm front and 10mm rear or 15mm rear and 25mm front! Gotta see if what i can do camber wise first! Also might need to shave my fender brackets if need be!

Im fine in the rear as a matter of fact its a prefect fit with the rim being a 11" wide.

As far as camber goes, i plan on installing the SPL V2 upper control arms.. I wonder if i could get away with a 10mm spacer with the right adjustments..

So what are your specs going to be with the addition of the above mentioned spacers?

You can barely make out my spacer in this photo (spacer and rotor hats are painted black). I would paint your spacer the same color as your rotor hat.

Very nice marcus! I was thinking it would stick out as well but have a dilema with mine since my wheels are gloss black! What color in your opinion would be best to paint my rotor hats and spacers with? Satin black? Did u just paint yours or did u powdercaot them? Whered u get them done?

Thanks man. Mine are painted satin black. I prepped them and RRYDE painted them in his garage, they came out great.

I would do satin black on yours, gloss black would be too much with your wheels being that color and matte black would be too much of a contrasting black IMO.

you cant really tell spacers are on the rotor because your rim is still tucked.. what size spacer are you running btw?
