Looking to buy some wheel spacers, what is the best type to go for, my wheels although non standard fit the Standard wheel hub,

 

Thoughts,

 

Cheers

 

Sayers

Need a bit more information than that.

 

What offset are you wanting? Small 5mm spacers don't really require anything as the hub will protrude enough into the wheel to locate it correctly and you won't need longer studs. 10mm, you'll need hubcentric spacers and longer wheel studs. 15mm+ you'll need bolt-on hubcentric.

 

Do your non-standard wheels have the correct spigot rings?

 

More info needed!

Thanks Si, I am looking at circa 30mm bolt on , my current wheels ( came on the car ) don't have any spigot rings , they just fit the hub centre, the wheels are something like mahidi, or madi, split rims or something like that, to me they looks like Porsche 928 wheels teledials.

You really need to measure your centre bore on the wheel and the one on the hub to confirm that this is true, it's almost unheard of for an aftermarket wheel not to require some sort of spigot ring so that the wheels' centre bore is reduced down to 66.1mm. Even a small gap can cause wheel vibrations etc.

 

I'd look at getting these then in that case:

Eibach and H&R are proven quality components. I'd strongly advise to use their spacers.

Eibach and H&R are the 2 premium brands when it comes to spacers.

 

But places like Tarmac Sportz and Torqen do their own versions which are perfectly suitable. I run 25mm ones from Tarmac Sportz

I had eibach ones, swapped with a member for bigger drift works ones. No complaints about either brand. I wouldn't use ones straight off eBay etc though.

The ones on the ebay link I posted are H&R.

Crossed wires there Si. I didn't see your link. I meant the generic unbranded ones, there's some very cheep ones floating around on eBay.

For info, those H&R spacers Simom linked are 30mm per axle so they're actually 2x15mm spacers.

first things first for me , ill get the vernier out and measure the hub diameter of the car , and the size of wheel centre , thanks for your help gents , much appreciated
