spacers

[myseatcupra]

i know this has been covered a million time. but im confused. what size spacers should i use on the back of my cordy to bring the back wheels in line with the front. and if i do this will there be any problem. and just for info im running 17in wheels. if that makes any difference

Have a look here to measure how thick a spacer you can fit:

IIRC the front track is 34mm wider than the back, but measure it as above as you have different wheels fitted.

"IIRC" means if I remember correctly.

im rubbish at this net chat stuff

you want 15mm hubcentric spacers,

that's 15mm per side, which makes the rear track 30mm narrower and closer in line with the front

one other thing. are they worth it.. will my car handle any better or ride better???? or is it just looks

 

[andyj]

it will handle better.... makes the back end more stable, and will give you better turn-in
