hi hun,

had a quick search on your site but couldnt find any. Im after 15mm/20mm for the rear and maybe 5mm on the front depending how much it will affect the handling?? you'll know more about that than me.


will probably collect when the rolling road day is on. will give me an excuse to come over. oh and dont forget my discount

20mm will be the minimum on the back of a Fabia iirc. This is due to the mounting depth required on the hub. Hubcentric spacers thinner than that wont sit flush with the disc face.

5mm on the front would be ok but you will need longer wheel bolts.

Hello my dear
Lummox is a good one isn`t he?
Anyway 20mm spacers from H&R come with the bolts , available from H&R tomorrow £66.15 + VAT
The fron spacers 5mm are £9.99 + VAT
The bolts we can supply for you , if we sell you the bolts with the spacers then we do them cheaper for you at £1.50 each + VAT
Hope that helps?
Sarah

No worries
The 20mm spacers are good ones and you will need them hubcentric too
Sorry
But you would need good ones

If you're going to space out wheels, you should always get the best. The brown stuff could hit the fan if you get a wobble on, or worse.

Thanks Sarah for my 4 x eibach spacers a while back.

I agree, hubcentric spacers are the only way to do it

Wobbly wheels at 70mph are not a good thing
