Where did everyone get their front spacers from? I picked up some universal 10mm but they were absolutely gash! I took them back and asked if it was a wind up, can you get a 10mm hubcentric? I'm assuming that r8 reps need 10mm front and 20mm rear on coilovers? (I only bought these as they were giveaway cheap with new, although uber budget, tyres) I have no idea what the offset is however. Also, is there a reason that the passenger rear wheel appears to stick out further than drivers?

I got these wheels, however just springs not coils, and 5mm fronts and 16mm took mine to perfectly in line with arches, no tyre stretch  :smiley:
