Wheel Spacer help

Post by warrior » Tue Sep 11, 2012 11:32 am

Has anyone got any 15mm spacers (or maybe some other width) I could borrow? I would like to get a little more width in my car but it is quite low so just want to borrow some spacers before I buy to make sure the wheels wont rub......anyone? please?

I've got a couple of 10mm spacers you could borrow.
However, even they need longer studs. So as Gary said, don't drive it.

i have some 15mm ones you can try but the hub bore is too big for an mx5 but they will likely fit if you have aftermarket wheels

sprsta.......I do have aftermarket wheels. Do you know the size of the bore so I can check if they will work? I had some for my MR2 and they did not need longer studs as they were the type that bolts onto the hub....are these the same as that? I need to drive with them on to make sure they dod not rub etc over bumps
