Anyone need hubcentric 20mm FRONT spacers?...

OK, I decided to ditch the 19" wheels on my 2005 C230K Sport because the Seattle roads were killing the tires, and I could never tell when they were flat. So. I decided on 18's. My brother just bought a 2013 C300 with only 17K on it, so I got his wheels and tires for $800. And they are perfect. Buuuuuuut, the offset as it turns out is waaaaay different on a W204. I did not know this, many of you probably do... I won't run spacers that arent hubcentric, and as it turns out, I need 25mm for the front, and 25-30mm for the rear. Nobody makes a spacer like that, so I had too...

Anyway, I decided initially that I wanted a 20MM spacer in the front, and since they are not available, I had to buy what was available and have them lathed to fit the front. Almost perfect, except the wheels I got just barely rubbed the calipers, so I did it all again with 25mm spacers. All is good now. But.. I now have 20mm hubcentric spacers that cost me a fortune at this point that I cant use. They fit over the front spindle on the C230K Sport brakes (And likely many others). And are hubcentric on the back and front side to 66.6mm. Can anyone here use these? This was an ordeal to get done...





I have the rear 20mm spacers too, but I need them for about 2 weeks until I get the 30MM ones I need. I have cone seat super long lug bolts I will include as well.

So they won't work on the rear? Ah...ok, so lemme know when you're ready to part with the rears...if the price is right...
