Hi, many ppl have told me to get 20 mm spacers for my 07 ibiza. Iv been looking and there are Hubcentric ones for £90 or just cheaper ones for £40, any advice?

*Gooner_Mike* · 21-10-2009, 17:20

Lots of folks on here have these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/20MM-Hubcentri...item439ac5ed23

I have them and they fit great! They are hubcentric too...

*knight85* · 21-10-2009, 17:55

yea they weigh loads, thats why postage is quite high

Nath_123ni · 21-10-2009, 21:00

yea the postage is like £15+

*Scott-o* · 21-10-2009, 21:23

i got these of someone second hand for 40 quid, really good kit, just quite heavy. but i have more faith in these than my 15mm aluminium fk ones i had on!

*AndrewJB* · 22-10-2009, 01:39

Ive also got these , As said they are heavy but make the car look alot better

Nath_123ni · 22-10-2009, 10:32

sweet hope they come soon

*Aimez* · 22-10-2009, 15:01

Yep I have them, us copper grease behind them.

DonniD1991 · 22-10-2009, 17:04

myt grab myself a pair pretty cheap

*flegz16* · 22-10-2009, 17:23

i have them too, bought them for me old mk4 ibiza but took them off and now there on my cupra, plus now its lowered it looks the nuts.

has anyone put spacers on the front, just been looking at 10mm spacers for £36.99?

*Aimez* · 22-10-2009, 18:37

I hear spacers on the front will screw up the handling and give you uneven tyre wear not worth it IMO

*Pabs* · 22-10-2009, 18:51

I've got some Eibach 15mm spacers, longer wheel bolts and McGuard locking bolts all to go on the rear of my cupra this weekend (along with some other bits).... can't wait to get it all fitted and sorted now!

Arnoldo · 22-10-2009, 18:58

Is there any advantage with them?

Rear or front ones? I don't think many if not anyone with a mk4 has front ones for the reasons I said I guess and maybe more reasons. But the rears make the wheel look less lost in the arch obviously and make the car handle better but tbh I noticed no difference in handling!

*Hartosh1* · 22-10-2009, 23:33

Also got a set of these defo worth the money really does bring the rear wheels into the arches nicely

Mine should be arriving today for the FR I'm collecting tonight. That'll sort out the rear arches as it's on 40mm P.I. springs and looking good but just need the extra track

.

I'll second your thoughts here Aimez. Also the fact that using ordinary spacers takes a fair amount of the load bearing away from the actual hub, possibly ending up in some drivetrain failure - Not Good

!

Phil

P.S. Aimez, are you still at Awesome? If so, any chance of an extra-special deal on a Whiteline rear ARB for my mk4?

Sorry Aimez, I think I'm getting you confused with Awesome Sarah......doh!!
I'm a returning forum user from a year or two ago and just got a bit muddled?

Nath_123ni · 23-10-2009, 16:36

So is it possible to put spacers on the front?
