Wheels spacers - where from?

[andye30m3]

I'm after some 10mm hub centric wheels spacers for my E30 320 and am slightly struggling to find any

Just wondering if anyone had a recommendations for somewhere I could get some?

Only one's on ebay are from the states which will result in high postage cost but if I can't find anything nearer I'll have to go with them

Try looking for 11mm, 10mm and less don't tend to be hubcentric. Is 1mm going to make much of a difference?

Under normal circumstances no but I'll be right on the limits of the PBMW championship with 10mm.

I've got some non hubcentric 10mm one's but get far to much wheel wobble when using them. I can get 12mm through a guy on ebay and have them machined down as another option

Have some custom spigot ring made. I did and it works a treat.

i'd be looking at 12mm ones and having the back machined 2mm, and take a couple of mm off the nose of the wheel hub.

there's not much call for 10mm ones as the original hub protrudes only a fraction less, so the lip between the hub and the new centre on the spacer is very thin. you're better off using a 12mm spacer which has more meat at the front to start with, then get them shaved, and alter the car very slightly to suit.

I machined the lip out of some 11mm golf ones this morning so they go over the longer hub protrusion on the E30 (fk spacers have a lip inside the bore to sit up against a Golf mk2's hub)



I am about to whack them back on now..

I bought some 40mm bolts (and a set of 40mm lockers) although I may have to machine them slightly so they don't catch on the inboard handbrake assembly)

speak to vw heritage (google it) and get 11mm spacers and find someone with a lathe (like me!)

Edit: reading your other post it wouldn't be too hard to take 1 or 2mm off the face of the spacer..
