spacers

[minnnt]

Hi all, what spacers are people fitting? What size would bring the standard wheels out more inline with the car? And will I need new longer bolts?

Thanks.

Bump on this as id like to know also, does anyone have a link to a set of 20mm hubcentric bolt on ones?

I have 5mm front and 15mm rear with longer bolts the fronts are standard bolts, couldn't tell you though if they are hub centric or not though

Your best bet is to check ebay

Spacer size will depend on the wheels you're running and also what drop you have.

Can anyone advise where to buy them?

I have no drop atm, but buying some springs next week and was wanting to order the spacers too so it completed the look straight away. I have the facelift fr wheels on my Toca. I'd like them to be level with the arch as much as possible really.

The fr wheels don't stick out like the cupra wheels so would 20 on the rear and 15 on the front be ok? Would I need new bolts for both sets then?

Thanks.

I've dropped my cupra 35mm with 8mm spacers at the front and 15mm at the back and sits pretty good

This is my fr with the 15mm spacers at the back without lowering.......yet!!! Lol

As for bolts minnnt I think you'd be looking at about 10-11mm max on standard bolts, so yes you will need them as I have extended ones on my 15mm spacers

Cheers Craigy.

Going to be original and measure the distance from the front of the wheel to the arch tomorrow.

Cheers mate. The thing I don't get is how come the arch gap is about 90mm but then when they're lowered it's almost gone.

It does indeed look good! Reckon I can get away with 20mm's then as my wheels don't stick out as much as the Cupra wheels.
