Hey,

Just thought I'd say hi as I'm in Cardiff and would like to maybe meet up with some other owners at some point. Just had a quick flick through and those wheel spacers look like a good idea. I take it they give plenty more grip.

Might of been the replacement SMIC

dave there in my nans garage and they are away not sure for how long! my mum aint here at the moment so when i know there bk il let u no, there spacer looking good tho!! fair play

 

[Forbez]

Think it may be a SMIC after reading threads.

 

[PhilW]

Dave, are they 15 or 20mm spacers? How much and where from butt?

 

[Forbez]

From Bill I think Phil, and around £80, look like 15mm too,.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

15mm best with 17's on coilovers. 20mm is pushing it a bit.

 

[PhilW]

I'm sure i read on sw-cc that theyre 20mm.

15's for me coz i love it on the deck.

 

[Martyn]

15's for me coz i love the ****.

i lend stuff front work, emery paper etc, and sanded away, i also had a light sanding disc on a grinder which i took over the whole top surface to get rid of most of the crap and then emeried the top to get rid of all the bits in the metal and leave a ruff dull finish and i then jst dwn graded the paper dwn the wet and dry and polished it wid autosol
