Wheel Spacers

[Stormtrooperstu]

Hi guys, new here.

I have just bought a Cupra Leon V2 Tdi and the car really needs wheel spacers. What size are people using on standard suspension and stock 18 inch wheels.
Any info or links would be great.
Also, is there anywhere in Ireland that specialise in Cupra cosmetic mods.
I used to have a BMW and used Motech in the UK for work.

My only advice to you is don't use shims, just the proper "bolt on to the hub wheel spacers". However, that means having to accept using 10/12 mm spacers, which was too much for me, hence using 5mm shims.

Also awkward to install because they are rotating freely whilst you line up the bolt holes on the wheels.

I would only ever use the proper spacers. I had them on my last car. I've ordered 12/15mm
