Wheel Spacers - Sydney

Hi All

A bit of a long shot here but was wondering if anyone had any 10mm, 12mm or maybe even 15mm hubcentric wheel spacers laying around?

I'd like to trial fit them on my car before purchasing to see which is best for clearance to strut, guard, etc.

If so, feel free to reply here or pm.

Thanks

Oh shoot. You got me there Sock.
It's for a couple of 19 inch rims I have laying in storage and I'm sure when I tried them on awhile ago they were rubbing the strut. Car isn't low so there was clearance on the guard.
From memory the offset is 24 on them. On both sets.
If I were to guess, maybe they're 265 wide

No problem
Depending on the tyre side wall (how much curve) on a 265 for the rears on stock rims a 5mm is to 10 mm spacer is probably the most you can fit without scrubbing. I run 265 on the rears with a 5 mm spacer and 235s up front with a 10mm spacer. If i run 265 Michellan PS4 I have to remove the rear spacer altogether. Good luck

Ahh Ok. Thanks Sock. I'll keep it in mind if I don't come across anyone with a set of spacers to trial fit with.
I'm not in any rush if I'm honest but thought if the opportunity came up to try then I would.
Out of curiosity, what's the widest tyre you've run on the front?

235s although I have seen people run 245s. Most peeps I know run 235s up front and 265s on the rear. Pretty common size for 335s. If it helps I have a few different size spacers but I’m in Melb so would have to post up and back. Can do if you get stuck

I see. Ok. I'll keep those sizes in mind.
Oh wow. Thank you for the offer. Do you know how much postage would be roughly?

I still haven't forgotten about the speaker moulds you shipped up to me too mate. I was down in Melbourne for the NBA a month or so back and actually thought of hitting you up for a beer or 3 however time was short. Will definitely do so next time I have a meeting down your way.

Postage probably be around $30 each way. Pretty heavy package with spaces and nuts 😃. Beer sounds great. Looking forward to it 👍

Excellent. Thank you. If I get the itch to change wheels and I haven't had a chance to trial some here I will hit you up.

If any Sydney members have any available to trial please contact me.
