Wheel spacers question.

[roentgen68]

Next Spring, I'm definitely going for H&R springs to lower the beast...

I was thinkingabout adding spacers also.

The question is, would you guys go for spacers also? I may go later for bigger/wider wheels, but not right now. I'm currently on 19" GT wheels with original 235/305 tires, but would go maybe for 20" 245/325".

Last detail: would you go for 10mm / 12mm / 15mm spacers?

When I had my V8 and was still using factory wheels, I ran H&R spacers at 10mm. The tires sat perfectly flush with the fenders. I don't recommend going wider than that.

I agree with SebringSilver. I used 10mm before, and it looked perfect.

10mm is perfect on the R8... I also wouldn't go more for obvious dynamic/mechanical/performance reasons

Thanks to all!

So 10mm it's gonna be...

What lug nuts did you use with the 10mm spacer/oem wheel?

I'm going to run this combo with snow tires this winter and don't see the oem lug working...what are you guys using?

There's a technical (too technical for me) footnote on the H&R website:

I'm gonna ask my installer to take care of this, so it's gonna be done properly.

Guys I'm also looking for 10 mm spacers, but can't seem to find longer bolts. Where are you finding them? I want to order as a full kit instead of separate.

Thanks.

H&R sell them with their spacers... but ordered as a separate item...

I tried H&R site, didn't find any bolts.
