I got some for the S3 the other day, H&R from Dpm motorsport, ordered mon came tue, think they were 70quidish a pair
Yeah about that - I paid £80 inc fitting and longer bolts.

 :shocked: :shocked:
Not the cheapest mod then!!!  Now wheres that number for the manufacturer of our own 15mm bolt on alloy spacers......... :cool: 

Just a little market research, if i were able to offer a pair of 15mm bolt on spacers for £40 would you still pay £80 odd for the H&R's just because the name is better known??

....It depends on how well proven they are and if hubcentric. Spacers is not something you want to get wrong.

Exactly - I saw some cheaper options but went for the trusted brand.
Also think 15mm may be too wide as 12mm sit just right.

Like the others said, if they are hubcentric and a nice snug fit that would be a great price, I might even try some 15mm for the rear at that price :laugh:

They will definatly be hub centric.  To give you an idea, i have attached a link to the Citroen spacer we currently sell.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/15mm-Alloy-Wheel-Spacer-kit-for-Peugeot-and-Citroen_W0QQitemZ140244581065QQcmdZViewItemhash=item140244581065&_trkparms=72%3A1090%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

I can get them to make it exactly the same as the one listed meaning the Golf would change to nuts (supplied with the kit) or i can get them to make it so that longer bolts would be needed. (Personaly i would change to nuts to avoid longer bolts).....

If people are definatly interested send me a PM and i will see if i can get some dimentions over to my supplier.  This will not be a quick turn around (sorry) as we have just received our latest order that could last upto 4 months... :sad:

Hope this is OK with the Mods, im only mentioning it as its been on my mind for a few months for my own car..
