Depends on what offset the wheels are in the first place! Why not just buy ones that fit without spacers?

I have the chance to buy some 17's with tyres no spacers for a decent amount of cash.. so need to buy spacers!

You don't have to have spacer's mate, they just bring the wheel out to the arche.oze30 wrote:I have the chance to buy some 17's with tyres no spacers for a decent amount of cash.. so need to buy spacers!

You only need to buy spacers if they are the incorrect offset to start with. Spacers compensate for wheels with too much negative offset. You can't specify what spacers you'll need, unless you know how far (if at all) out the offset of your new wheels is.oze30 wrote:I have the chance to buy some 17's with tyres no spacers for a decent amount of cash.. so need to buy spacers!
