Haven't read all the thread so not sure if it's of use but I've got 8.5j wheels 215/35 Tyres, final et of 20 on the front and they did catch the arch lip at times, rolled the arches now and have no issues at all. Rears are the same et with no probs.

They are 19'' wheels.

Have you decided on sizes yet, they are both reasonably expensive!

tell me about it lol  :grin:

Defo going with 15 either side on rear and 5mm on front. Want hubcentric ones as ive heard bad reviews of the normal wheel spacers. But they do work out alot more expensive  :sad:

Venom or ebay is your best bet.

Or speak to Ben Victors on here he makes them.

Hi guys right I've found my hubcentric 15mm 57.1bore spacers on eBay for 50 including extended bolts (not the link above, different one)

Just need help with the front ones. Can you get hubcentric 5mm? Or do they only come in bigger sizes?

Thanks
