Spacers

I want to push my front rims further out. Maybe 'bout 20-25mm. I'm worried about not having enough length on the bolts to accomodate a spacer this thick. Anyone know where is the best place to buy spacers would be? Anyone on these boards using thick spacers? If so what kind?

Re: Spacers

I'd do some research on wheel spacers before I added 1 inch to any setup. There are pro's and cons to them, but from what I've read 1 inch seems like it's just too much. May want to consider a different set up...

Normally you have the wheel and the hub that put 5 bolts in double shear, with wheel spacers you have double-double shear and this is double trouble, especially if you're driving hard. There is more to it than just that, but there is a ton of information on the internet about wheel spacers. Do a search and post your findings.
