wheel spacers for my 20s help please

[barnsley]

my leon is lowered but the rear alloys need moving out how do i tell the size of spacer i need i have 30mm from the tyre to the wheel arch was thinking of fitting 20mm spacers or do i get 25 mm

can anyone help

it depends on the offset of the alloy in my opinion and what the max offset you can fit on the car. if your rims are et 45 like my 19's they sit in the arch way too deep and need taken out a bit. i used a 10mm space because they remommend an offet of no more than 35 on a leon.

but i would say going to big on the spacers will cause the wheel to foul the inner wing etc, and buying spacers that big you need to get good quality hubcentric ones (sp) for piece of mind.

was only looking at the hubcentric spacers do u have any befor and after pics jay

im afraid not, but the pics of your rims looks pretty good to my eye! i wouldn't be bothered spacing them out at all.

i may be able to help you out with 15mm spacers if your interested, give me a pm.

16s on the rear of mine ... but i think you'd be pushed for clearance looking at yours. 10s on the front.

increasing the track by an inch up front will make it handle terribley

I would also fear for your wheel bearing too!

thanks all

i think if you spaced the rears out you'd come into hitting your wing
