15mm spacers

[CupraRmark]

I'm looking into wheel spacers at the moment want some 15mm for the rears on my LCR just noticed they have hubcentric with longer bolts, and then bolt on hubcentric spacers ??? At least with the bolt on hubcentric you use your old bolts and locking wheel bolts..... Anyone experienced these bolt on types......

I'm very interested in going this way

They'd be the best 1's to go for

Im using bolt through. I prefer it tbh! The bolt on ones are easy to strip threads. Especially at 15mm!

so lemme get this right, there are a set that bolt onto the the hub then you bolt the wheels to the spacers and there are sets that just bolt through both the wheel and the spacer onto the hub??

Correct !! It's so you use your original bolts if you used the bolt through type then i don't think you would get locking wheel nuts that long

Also Anything under 15mm on the bolt on type and you need shortened bolts.

Now that's a good point

Ah! Got it so if i wanted to get a flush look what sort of size would i be looking for without rolling the arches??

 

[CupraRmark]

Think most people go 15 front 20 rears but I was looking at mine today and I'm happy with the fronts how they sit but the rears are well in the arches so I'm going for 15mm bolt on for the rears only at 1st

 

[RaviR50]

yeah i thought something like 15/20 on the front and like 25 rear, need some different alloys though haha

If your at std height you won't need to roll arches

yeah lowering is on the list too haha i never did get round to getting some coilovers

For 15mm I'd personally go for bolt through spacers.

Sorry Damian I'd already ordered fk 15mm bolt on type before you replied I did send you a email few months before though but didn't have a reply, I'm NOT HAPPY anyhows the spacers was delivered to find when I put them up to the rims my studs bolt through into the spacer and around 3mm of thread was sticking out, so I was then told to cut down my original bolts which I'm not doing as when i ordered them i was told they would be a straight bolt on no issues so sent them back to swop with 20mm .....ill see how they look might just sell them and swop tyres to 235's

be good to see a before/after pic mate

 

[CupraRmark]

Ill see how it looks with the 20mm before I decide to keep and post pics.... I wanted 15mm because I didn't wanna touch the fronts but now think 20 rears and standard fronts will look soft.....

 

[BigJase88]

I went 12mm front and 15mm rear both bolt through type


Rear

Front

Overall

Hmmm looks like your email didn't come through.

Yes that's why we only sell bolt through 15mm spacers.
