    Default spacers

    I have 19" snowflakes, and fancy some spacers, especially at the back as they sit in they arch abit. Would you think the front need them too? And how many mm should i get at the back? Are the non hubcentric ones dodgy to use? Any pics welcome... im thinking just 10mm on the rear but carnt find any hubcentric 10mm ones, they all seem to be 20mm etc..

    Anything over 5mm then get hubcentric. I use 5 mm on mine in order to be able to fit my alloys (otherwise they hit my brakes). There can be issues with balencing and alignment when using them

    They just give the car a better stance paul, look slightly wider at back and bring in line with rear arches. Hairy has some 25mm ones on his 18" astra twintop alloys and it looks really well...brings face of alloy to fill top of arch more.

    I put 10mm spacers on the rear of my Vec, but as the upper control arms are needing attention the wheels still look like they are in the arch a bit.
