spacers

[adam cupra 20vt]

rear shot?

There might be some in my RR thread, this one might be better?

 

[itfben]

here is my Leon's rear

If I go for the 15mm all round, I will prob just get a pair to start with to try front and back as suggested. What are the ones to get? good ones!

 

[DannyC87]

LCR standard rims are et38 7.5J if that helps. Mine is fairly low, around 1 finger gap between arch and tyre all round, down maybe 60mm.

When i get my wheels on next month, i'll be using 15mm spacers up front and 20mm spacers on the rear with 9j wide wheels

Think i might need some arch extensions. Wide arch kit anyone?

Go for hubcentric ones, i like the ones that bolt to the hub, then the wheel bolts to the spacer, you use your own wheel bolts/lockers, can't see any at the mo but these look ok http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ALLOY-WHEEL-1...tem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item439ed316e4

Lee, they look to be steel rather than alloy to me? Alloy is best for less unsprung weight, steel spacers can potentially introduce unwanted vibrations in my experience.

 

[itfben]

seems very logical. Alternative?

 

[LEE69]

Do they actually do alloy spacers?
Never really looked tbh, I'd be wanting something substantial to bolt my wheel too.

These magnesium ones ok if have a red leon http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-JC-PROJEC...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item439bcb8c51

these are what I have, although email the seller to request radius bolts for OEM wheels.
