Title: 5 mm spacers for the FD
Post by: Initial-D on June 08, 2007, 07:49:14 PM
Anyone know somewhere to get some proper 5 stud 114.3 spacers.. as I\'m concerned with running the universal ones over 100mph!!

Thanks in advance.:Thumbs-up

Hi Ben,

We sell safe uni-hole 95 to 120 PCD spacers,  6mm or 10mm thick for £10.30 each plus Vat

Hope this helps.

I really wanted a spacer that fits exactly so theres no chance of movement. Thanks though Cllive, I\'ll give you a shout if I have no joy.

Hi Ben,

We can get custom ones made at extra cost if you wish but seriously you should know we would not sell you anything we were not certain would do the job corectly and safely .

The way a wheel "clamps" on there is no chance of movement with these spacers due to the way they mount on the studs.

BTW I have had monster 75mm spacers on my Explorer for over a couple of years and that\'s safe at over 100mph on private roads ;)

Ahh so they can\'t rotate or shift up and down - sounds much better, just the universal word which fills me with dreaded thoughts of ebay 99p jobs!

75mm on the explorer, that is huge!!

Ben,
Have a look at the H+R website, they have direct fit(not slotted) 5x114.3 spacers with the correct diameter centre and shoulder. I have a pair of 15mm, and they are top notch.
