I am going to need a set of wheel spacers not too sure at the moment on what size but I know I will need some.
I looked around on ebay and they want $100. a pr. Is this a good price? Where can I get some good ones at a good price? I dont want any cheapies and have my wheels fall off as I am driving somewhere either...

Thanks.

H&R Wheel spacers are hubcentric and include new bolts.

Why do you need spacers? How pushed in are your wheels?

The H&R's are on sale at NA Motorsports (http://www.namotorsports.net/listing.cfm?method=category&cat=30&subcat=97)
5MM, 15MM, 20MM, 25MM

Right now they arent they are at stock stance but they will be pushed in when I put my body kit on...

Which body kit? If it's a widebody, you'll need to widen your fenders to safely push out the wheels

Yes it is and I know.. But I was told I still need spacer to push out the wheels that or get a wide set of wheels like 19x9.5 or 19x10..

I will need the spacers to push out my stockies atleast until I decide on a set of rims and buy them..

You'll probably need the 20 or 25MM spacers then... and those don't come cheap.

H&R is pretty much the only way to go. But yes... expensive. :(

Tim,

I heard a lot about H&Rs...I was looking for some of them for my car but I ended up with Eibach instead. See the difference:

With Spacers:

Oh...btw...it's best if you call them...you can tell them that you're with Scikotics and/or that I referred you (they're one of my sponsors...great people, too) and they could probably get you a better price.

Hey, anything to help a brotha (w/ a pimped tC) out!

Are the Eibach spacers hubcentric? That's the main reason I'd go with them - hubcentric ones won't throw you off or give you much worse of a ride.

Yep... i didn't see the link. I didn't know Eibach made them - The only one's I've ever been able to find are the H&R's.
