rear wheel spacers
« on: 01 June 2004, 17:17 »
do any of you guys run spacers as im looking to bring the rear wheels out about 10mm to fill out the arch a bit more. i was looking on the mk5 forum and the guys there said its no prob to run 15mm on the back but what do you do about the wheel bolts as they dont look that long to me. aslo any one got a pic of a car running them??

I think they were ?35 delivered, they are 15mm FK Aluminium spacers but came without any bolts.
I got them from a forum member on UKMKIV's - Rich AKA R1GTI.
They sit perfectly with the rim protector on the tyre just fractionally inside the arch.
