Style 162 rims: what spacers does everyone run?

AWe90 · 05-30-2011, 09:20 PM

Looking for input...pics if possible. Thx.

arctic330i · 05-30-2011, 09:25 PM

I have 18mm spacers and there perfect! 20 would be hellaflush I think. But I did not want to do the extension bolts.

VTECaddict · 05-30-2011, 09:29 PM

Whoops, yes I do! I meant with 20mm+ you have the bolts going from hub to spacer, then separate bolt going through to wheel. I don’t like that. Sorry for the confusion!

I think my friend has 25mm all around with extended lugs. He's also on H&R sports and doesn't rub surprisingly.

I have 189's w/ the same offset as 162s... I run 12mm front and 15mm rear... looks pretty good but the rear could go with 18mm (possible rub though)

arctic330i · 06-04-2011, 05:54 PM

Here you go! 18mm rears only.

AppleEater · 06-04-2011, 06:03 PM

12mm front 20mm back

definitely go 20 in the back, my fronts wheel poke a little farther than my rears

ExoticHamster · 06-04-2011, 07:29 PM

Looks like you can do 20mm pretty easily.

Looks good. Any experience with the 20mm rear setup with two adults in the back on a bumpy road?

Can't say if I've been in that exact situation but no issues with rubbing so far.

hankcah · 06-15-2011, 01:59 PM

17.5s in the rear. If Im on a fast road and hit a HUGE bump then yes I hear it rub for a second. But thats a pretty decent bump with a passenger in the back.

lux.sh · 06-15-2011, 02:39 PM

damn. you guys with wheel spacers certainly don't know how to take pics... except for that first AW pic.

toicy4ya · 08-17-2012, 06:10 AM

I installed some BSM spacers,18mm rear and 12mm front? I contacted RAD about some extended wheel locks for a staggered set up. Unfortunately they don't do staggered set ups. They stated I would need to buy two different sets.

Is there anyway around this? How have others done it with staggered set up?

EPT535i · 08-17-2012, 07:16 AM

I have 15mm in the rears and nothing up front. Been debating to put 10up front. I had 12 mm and didn't like how the front wheel stuck out to much. I like how the 15mm look in rear. Brings them out but still a little tucked in the fender.

Mpower77i · 08-17-2012, 11:16 AM
