E55 front hub spacer....help!!

I did a search and found nothing....so please help if you can...I recently purchased a set of wheels from a SL500.....sick rear stances but the front wheel WILL NOT clear my AMG caliper. I looked on ebay for spacers, none of which will work for the front except the 5mm, i really need 10mm to be safe...Does anyone know where and what brand i can buy some?

Thanks in advance...

with the 10mm spacers i have experienced steering wheel shake at 60 to 70 mph, even if there is enough hub to the wheel to sit on.
I would not recommend going above 5 mm in front.

I have 20mm spacers to clear the calipers, mine also have a centre which replaces the need for the wheel bearing grease cap.

THEY MUST BE HUBCENTRIC WHEEL SPACERS, other wise you will get vibrations.

We have both the H&R 10mm and 12mm spacers in stock.

let me know

price is $95 plus shipping and you also will need longer bolts which are $3/ea.

I have h&r front wheel spacers on my 220, they slip over the grease cap. They have different ones for the front or rear. Very nice quality
