Think it's going to be light rain on and off, like today. It's there incase it hammers it down. Unlikely though.

Umbrella and some cleaning bits in the car ready. Can't find the lead for my satnav, so don't leave me behind lol

Nah, flamer mate.

From Honda? Or eBay? Think I've tried about 4 now. All crap.

Yeah £10 on the gate.

Have fun lads.

That's what I thought he was talking about.

Ah ok. see you at beaconsfield services then mate. Quite excited about all this tbh. Although I will be shattered! Red bulls at the ready.

Good lad, which junction will you be getting on?

So just us three is it? What about peanuthead, isn't he Scentral?

Yeah it does. A lot more sense tbh. Picking them up at CSS. And giving him the 20mm spacers back. Top man!!

Done. Hub spacers purchased instead of bolt to hub type. Cheers lads.

Aaah I see. Lol. I never even thought of those. Cheap enough to buy if I fancy them anyway. See how much studs are going to cost. May end up also selling the 15mm and getting the hub spacers you linked. Cheers mate.

I do. Wheel bolts poke through the alloy approx 18/19mm. So I either need studs, and just slide the spacers over. Or shorter wheel bolts.

Just repeating what it says on their thread mate. I don't understand either tbh. Which is why I'm asking lol.

On their trader section, the thread about spacers says 15mm are bolt to hub type, but they recommend using a stud conversion kit. If I don't use studs, I will need to trim the wheel bolts surely? Which to me, sounds quite dangerous.

Oh yeah, common sense really. eBay ones come in 40,50,60,80. So even the 80mm ones are too short. I need at least 83mm. The 15mm are also bolt to hub. Will securing some 68mm studs not work with these? Like the 25mm?

Anyone know what length studs I will require running 25mm and 15mm spacers? Looking at the ktec ones, seem to be a good price. Come in 68mm or 100mm. Also some on eBay, come in a range between 40mm to 80mm. Quite cheap though.

They said I can send them back, just done me a deal on some 15mm. Time to find some studs. Will I need Longer studs for the fronts? As they have bigger spacers?

Ah well. Was trying to avoid the stud conversion route. So expensive. Not sure weather to send the 25mm set back and stick the 20s on front. Or does that look ok? Any idea what the best value for money stud kit is? I never do track days, so purely for road use.

Well this is it Took it for a quick drive, nsr is scrubbing! Oh well back to dan for some 15mm. Got 10mm more at the fronts lol. See if he will take these back, and get the 15 in exchange. If not I will just sell them.

I will grab one in a mo. I've only fitted one side at the moment. So I can compare. Checked the front, no scrubbing, rears have lots of room. I think either front needs more poke, or rears need less. Will get them all on, and take a pic

Just fitted a set of 20 and 25mm spacers to my 172 which has cup turini's fitted. Front went from this To this The rears went from this To this Do the rears look too far out?

Ok yeah. So should be at point 2 for around 9:45/10. Can't wait.

Where is the other meet? Bishops is over an hour away from beaconsfield

Ok, time for meet up at beaconsfield services? Post code for here is HP9 2SE. Incase anyone needs it.

Yeah meet up at those services on m40 then meet everyone at the 50+ car convoy at bishops?

Yup ok, we will do that. Sounds a plan.

I'm getting on at junction 8 Wheatley. Or 7 stadhampton if I pick up Stephen.

Oh ok, we'll I'm going m40 way.
