Has anyone tried out this type?

[StevieG-09]

Looking to get spacers for the rear wheels of my car as they tuck in so much.
Found a few on ebay and was just wondering if anyone has tried them out?

Any help would be great!

Avoid imo!

They are not what I call proper spacers. When you fit those, you are effectively losing 1cm of hub!

Buy some hubcentrics, so the part the wheel rests on remains the same size. Hold on, i'll find an example...

Like these...

What Daniel says, Im running what you have linked but only 5mm on the front.

Anymore than 5mm you need to go hubcentric, The hub ring is what the wheel relies on as well as the bolts to hold the wheel on.

Go hubcentric if you want wideness over 5mm, Otherwise your wheels might fall off.

Yeah I have read about them being dodgy but didn't know how much mm until it was dodgy. I'm running 25mm hubcentric spacer on the front but only need 10mm ones on the back and haven't found hubcentric ones in 10mm.
They all seem to start at 20mm and upwards

FK do 10mm hubcentric for a 2.0 Clio.

I have just bought some! lol.

Where did you get em from Daniel?

 

[a.jenkin]

Did you get them from venom motorsport?

Seem like a good price, but also need to buy longer bolts with type A I think.

 

[StevieG-09]

Is that price for one?
Can you get extended locking wheel nuts?

 

[AlexG]

You dont need extended bolts on hubcentric kits.

Spacer and supplied bolts bolt onto the car.

Then use existing wheel bolts to bolt the wheel onto the spacer.

 

[StevieG-09]

Thats what i thought, but if you read the info in that link it says you need extended bolts, but also says there there centric ones.
Daniel where did you get your 10mm ones? if they were for a 2.0 clio they would still fit a non-sport wouldnt they with drums?

 

[Daniel]

I bought them off a member on here.

They came from Venom originally. I suggest you ring them as they are very helpful and knowledgable people.

Doesn't it depend what type your getting? Isn't that only with the System B ones off venom?

 

[StevieG-09]

Yeahh but arnt they the best type? it is only system B that use bolts to attach the spacer to the drum then you use separate bolts to attach the wheel to the spacer.

I thought people are saying to stay away from the system A type??
