Me again with these pesky wheels (wish i'd never bought them now) anyway i've put them on the car and used big washers to pack them out as far as I can to get an idea of the size of spacers I'm gona need.
Ive spaced them out 12mm and they are still way off being in the right place.
I'm going to machine some hubcentric spacers at work and gona have a first punt at 22mm (i can always machine them back down if its too big)...
The question is, with spacers of that size am I likely to get any problems? The thing that I'm thinking is if the spacers are bolted to the hubs with 12.9 high tensile bolts and the wheels bolted to the spacers with normal length wheel nuts surely it would be as good as the standard setup?
Just wanted peoples opinions before I waste my time machining up some chunky spacers.
Cheers Ashy.
The other thing is if the wheels are 43mm offset and at 12mm spacing (as i have them now) they still look way too far into the body, could there be something wrong with my suspension geometry front and back? because really they should only need 8mm to put them in the right place?
