Wheel Spacers

I run a 5/8 or 5/16 i cant remeber which.. spacer from Pep Boys to clear my brembo's with my SSR's. They have various sizes at Pep Boys and run bout 15 bucks. I was able to use my stock wheel studs with the 5/8 spacer, barely... If using a spacer I would recommend longer wheel studs.

Now if you need 2 inches I would recommend u get the proper offset wheels, or u will be rubbin your fenders.

why does everyone like kkics spacers so much? they are expensive and not hubcentric. H&R's are hubcentric and cheaper. I got a 15mm for my car for $96 at racerwheel.com

I had the same question too, some people paid $$$$ for the spacers but without the hub ring.

i specifically run 15mm spacers from kics. they are the only ones that
have new studs on their 15mm spacers that i know of. i just bought
centering rings from them for like additional $25 for the pair. who cares,
it's cheap.

ichiba- i noted to you on another post that your spacers look good
except you don't have 15mm with new studs on them.

some of us don't want to use longer studs as we swap wheels
summer/winter and don't want to go though banging out the studs
each time.

I ordered spacers from ichibausa 5mm and 15mm.The spacers are good but they did not clear the brakes.The 5 to small the 15 to big so primier performance in pembroke pines FL custom made some for me 150 for the pair.They fit right in the hub perfect .So any body have the same prob as me check them out.
