You might have to get them custom made, often times cheaper. I've used JR from Motorsport Tech over the years and have never been disappointed. Great service and he really knows his stuff.

i dont care who makes them , i cant even find a distributor who sells the h&r spacers . care to share where you purchased yours? Everything i see for h&r is exactly what i have already, unless they are using a generic picture.

http://www.trakplus.com/images/trakg...s/20556659.jpg is this the correct part number for the pictured spacer?

Ok, these then. It should be the exact same ones I'm using on my s600.

just to give you guys a heads up beware of doing business with motorsport-tech.com especially with tool named Lenny Stahl.

ordered up some 12mm spacers for my cls, The guy tells me he makes these all the time , has made thousands of them. So cool get them in, guess what, they are not like the h&r ones that i sent him a picture of.

they look like the ebay ones, but they machined the ID of the lip side to 65.40mm, the lips thickness is .0200" . Tried to put them on, they dont fit. told him the dimensions of the spacers thinking he might know if something is off but he insures me that they are snug that is all.

so i use the lug bolts, turning them by hand in clock wise rotation to insure its going in evenly. get it on but now the spacer is STUCK on , would need to use a chisel or large flat head in between rotor and spacer to get it off which will damage the spacer. so i try to put the wheel on, it doesnt want to seat either now,looks like the thin lip has expanded.

so i needed to get going put the wheel on and once again use the bolts and tighten in a clock wise rotation till wheel is snugged up. pretty sure the spacers have indents and crap. 1 time use spacers for $100 ...

i email him and tell him that the spacer is stuck on now, he leaves his number for me to call.

Give him a call, we are talking a little, i explain the issue and how tough it was to get the spacer. Explain to him that 2 other sets of spacers, as well as wheels fit on the vehicle so the hub bore is not the issue. He soon loses patience with me and becomes vulgar, starts calling me an idiot, tells me to just send them back and he will refund me as we does not want to deal with me... couldn't believe it.. I was nothing but courteous, i even brought up the point that i was keeping my cool through out the entire conversation, but he just kept being an a$$hole, told me to return the spacers, didnt want to deal with me, and good luck finding spacers.

so beware of this guy. I share a pretty large machine shop with my pops, and machine parts for a living, work with all kinds of metals, from inco, super alloys,nickel, to 6061, with tolerances that are within a few tenths, as well as do internet sales of assault rifle parts, and i would never speak to a customer the way this tool spoke to me.

this is the last email he sent me before things hit the fan.


Re: cls 55 10 mm wheel spacers you sent me are no good.

I would say that if you need 20mm spacers: You have the wrong wheels

thanks but i already purchased another set . for those who want a the correct 10mm spacer, these are the ones on my vehicle now. work perfect, and fit over the grease/dust cap if you flatten it a little. one of mine was dented in from PO, and it fits right over.

Did you notice any steering wheel vibration/shimmy with these spacers?
