Talking Spacers anyone?

Hi guys,

I was thinking of sliding in some spacers for the rear wheels. Any thoughts, experiences? How will look like cuz I feel the rear wheels need a SLIGHT spacing.

Awaiting your responses

Installed right, there are no negatives, just a wider stance, flushed wheels, and better handling due to the wider stance. You'd have to see what look you are going for with the mm size for the spacer.

Just did; only in the back so far. I was not sure if they were going to fit or not due to how tall the hub is. But they did and I really like it.

You can go with any brand you want but they will need to be more than 12mm wide and they gotta be center hub spacers. Our cars got a very tall hub and anything below 12 mm will not mount flush. I used a regular ruler to check how tall the hub was and got almost 12mm.

I don't know if I will be doing the front as I like how the car looks now

Looks great!

Are you planning to lower it at all? how about the front?

I'm planning on keeping spacer just in the back for now. Wont make the same mistake with the w204, I lowered the car and it will kill tires like nothing. Maybe in the near future I will get a set of spacers for the front and see how it looks

—- you said you ordered 10mm for rear then said need to use >12mm. Which size is on the rear?
