I was wondering if anyone has 20mm spacers in the rear of stock wheels and have been lowered by springs and struts or coilovers. the reason I ask is cause i am getting some coilovers and i have 20mm spacers in the rear. Has anyone done this yet? If so did you have to roll the fender lip that goes in the wheel well? Or did everything clear?

 

That's over 3/4" of spacer. I hope you plan to run some longer studs if you want to do that.

 

The spacer are fine. The studs came with the H&R spacers.

 

Anyone????

 

How is anyone supposed to know if the wheels/tires will rub if you don't mention what wheels/tires you are using???

 

He said he had stock wheels.

 

LOL geez no one huh. Well i guess i'll be the test subject. i am trying to figure out if i need to bend the lip that sticks in on the fender on the rear wheel wells.

 

It seems like you will be fine using 20mm spacers

 

Damn H&R, I wish these freakin things would come off backorder.

 

looks like they have em in stock...

Nope they're still out of stock.

 

well if i where u i would just call or check the website www.wheelspacers.com

 

I've got them in the rear with my 19's and i am dropped around 3.5" in the back and had minor rubbing so i think you should be fine

 

Well I dropped the car an inch in the rear with the stock tires. Not even close to rubbing. So thanks guys.

 

Do you have these spacers? I just called and they said $65 each for 10mm spacers with the hubcentric rings that will fit my wheels or just $40 each without the hubcentric ring. Even with 10mm I'm still able to get my hubcentric rings that I have now over the hub so I wouldn't think I would need to pay the extra $50 for them to put a ring on them for me. The guy said it would vibrate like hell if I didn't have them.

 

no matter what. You have tgo have the hubcentric ring on there. Its unsafe to not have it.

 

My first version/try at spacers for the rear were indeed 20mm H&Rs on wheels with nearly the same offset as the OEM 17 inchers and they fit fine, meaning, no rubbing or anything like that.

I replaced the 20mm spacers with 12mm custom-made spacers as I found the 20mm to be just too much.....if I had to pick H&R spacers I would go with the 15mm spacers, not the 20mm ones....

Here's a couple picks of what 12mm spacers look like....

By getting a flat spacer and just using the hubcentric ring I already have should be fine. The spacers are hubcentric and the ring I'm adding will make it wheel centric.

 

That I dont know. I have never tried this or heard if its safe. So new one on me. Sorry if I was sounding overbearing
