Question Wheel Spacers with Stock Rims

Anyone have wheel spacers with their stocks? Could you please post some pics? Also, would new lug nuts and threads be needed?

Thanks.

If you go with anything more than about 3-5mm then yes new lugs will be needed. H&R is probably the best alternative to go this route.

i think you meant new studs.

kinda confusing when u also deal with euro cars because those are lug bolts.

What do you guys think about the front? My rear is definitely not flush with the fender, but my front is a little less. About 15mm front and 25mm rear?

Why does the right rear wheel look more pushed out than the left?

Where did you get the spacers? And why didn't you do the front as well? Last question: So the 25mm spacers work with stock studs?

eBay, less than $100 shipped
fronts...not sure why i didn't, i guess they dont look as "bad" as the back
i'm probably getting 15mm for the front this spring
yes they work, they bolt onto the hub & the tire bolts onto the spacer.

H&R Wheel Spacer for less than $100? These are hub centric, correct?
Could you provide me with a link because I'm having trouble finding them. I found one for about $140 shipped.

Bailey, How is the tire wear? Notice any differences? Does the inside of the tires wear out more?

Thanks!

Adrian

$100bucks, yep.... h&r hubcentric...
be patient they'll pop up (oh ya, mine were gently used)
the inside is wearing a litle faster, but those goodyears have harder rubber on the inside just for that purpose
