General more spacer problems....

[kris669]

right i know i have posted up a few psots b4 aboput spcars but i'm really srtuggling!!!


i need fat ass spacers for my mk2 punto!!!!

widest i have sourced is 25mm, but really i need double this!?!?!/

anyone know where to go?!?!/

double that would be dangerous and i dought you would get wheel bolts that long, i think you best find some diffrent wheels

Spacers are inherently dangerous, personally I wouldn't use them at all. 25mm is extremely thick and would cause all sorts of problems, eg uneven tyre wear, dodgy handling, wheels falling off...

premature wheel bearing faliure

you'd maybe need custom bits made e.g- anti roll bar, torsion beam. basically whole new running gear at the back. if you put your mind to it, bits from other cars would likely work like from another small, but wider hatch, so maybe a transplant would be an idea too.

good luck

Jesus - what bloody alloys are you putting on?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got 3mm spacers on mine (rear only) and I've got 195/55/15 tyres on.

Anything more than a 5mm spacer and forget it.
