I was fitting 10mm hub centric spacers tonight and fronts where no problems but rears don't fit due to design. Can anybody recommend the best ones to go for on the rears say about 8mm? And also where is the cheapest place to buy?
Cheers John

I was but I believe 8mm is the biggest you can safely fit on the rear as has to be non hub centric!dood9n3 wrote:You putting 10mm all round?

I have 10mm hubcentric spacers at the rear only with longer bolts, however these were test spacers which have the lips machined smaller but I dont see why they wont work

Re: Help needed! Where to get rear 8mm wheel spacers?
I was looking at buying this kit:
http://www.awesome-gti.co.uk/product.php?xProd=28812
Front 30mm (15 per side) and Rear 40mm (20 per side)
If your saying theres a max of 10 on the rear, will this kit (or anything similar) not fit?
Cheers
