yuppers

60.1 bore, 4x100 layout. sound as a pound

 

[MartinR]

Yep they will fit fine.

I use them on the 182, non sport has the same pcd and centre bore.

Once fitted check the bolts every couple of days and re torque them up.

 

[BustaMOVEs]

Yep I bought same ones for my ph2 172 and perfect fit, not sure if non sport are same though.

 

[Brad.shepp]

Excellent thanks for the quick reply's will be ordering some of these up at some point

Out of interest what torque settings are these usually set at?

 

[MartinR]

Renault state 90nm most do circa 105-110nm i do mine to 115nm

 

[Brad.shepp]

On alloys you torque to around 105-110 Nm

Edit: to slow

 

[Loz H]

sweet cheers guys, got some spacers coming myself

 

[Timmsy]

Sorry to thread highjack but looking at getting some spacers on my ph1 172 with standard oz f1's, currently standard hight but looking to get some cooksport springs on cup dampers soon too,

What's the max spacer i should get for front & rear?

 

[loggyboy]

Ps get them on ebay as its ALOT cheaper, from the same people. :S

Help
Ok so I fitted the spacers today and the rear tyres are now catching on the arches. HELP what are my options?? for reference the car is lowered 40mm on apex springs has 16" turinis fitted, Should I get the arches rolled ? maybe new shocks as it is on the standard ones atm, smaller spacers, put the original rear springs back on ?

 

[Lawro]

What offset are the turini's and what size tyres?

The best option would be to fit smaller spacers. I wouldn't personally have your arches rolled unless your not bothered about returning your car to standard at any point in the future.

 

[Brad.shepp]

Standard cup offset and profile is 45

 

[Loz H]

Stretched tyres yo

 

[Brad.shepp]

Stretched tyres yo

Is yours ok on 20mm's ? or have you not fitted them yet ?

 

[Lawro]

Not the profile of the tyre, the width.. 195 or 205?

195 mate

 

[Lawro]

195 mate

Hmmm, not really much you can do here other than either stretching the tyre which is a dreadful IMO! I personally would ditch the spacers and fit 10mm ones instead, they should be fine.

I am running CookSport Springs with ET40 Turini's on 195's with 15mm spacers on the rear with no issues. That takes me to an ET25 on the rear. Your running ET37 so with 10mm spacers would take you to an ET27. That should be perfect.

Ok cheers I will look into getting some 10mm's instead

 

[Zeitgeist0190]

Brad - Just a quick question for you, Are you running these spacers on the Non-sport wings? I was thinking of getting them for mine and don't have the flared sport arches!

 

[Lawro]

Dan @ MAD on here sells the bolt to hub style spacers for the rear. Good quality and bolt behind the rear brakes so doesn't cause any extra load on the rear bearings.

Yehs its a standard mk2 it has a 172 rear bumper but that doesn't change anything the front is fine but the rear is catching.

 

[Loz H]

I havent even got em yet mate. pissed off I know the fronts wont rub but i can see the backs being a pain, but i dont mind rolling out my arches so all shall be well

[scotty10]

Ok this is confusing the hell out of me

So I have cup packed wheels and want some negative camber for looks and i mean just slightly

I've got 205/45/16 tyres lowered on 40mm apex anyway what do you guys suggest size spacers i should go for

 

[Loz H]

Best way would be to get outside with a tape measure & have a tinker, see how much clearance etc you've got to play with

 

[scotty10]

Do you mean tyre side wall to being flush with wheel arch

Silly question i know but i would rather get it right first time

 

[Loz H]

Sorta, take into acount the lip inside the arch aswell because this can damage your sidewall in it scrubs (i know from experience haha)

 

[scotty10]

Spot on cheers mate

 

[Mr Plums]

Hi mate, what et are you running?

Im running et37 ultras on 40mm apex springs, would i be ok ordering these all round?

Also what size hex bolts are the new ones that come with the kit?

Hi

I also run et37 on sportlines i have 16mm up front and 5mm rear with 195 45 16 tyres ,205's scrubbed

The bolts are 17mm

probable not my trophy Turini's are et37 and the rears scrubbed but the front where fine

 

[Mr Plums]

I think im going to go for 10 rears and 20 on the fronts, i hope these fill the arches enough with et37 wheels.

Can anyone put some links up to the correct ones i need including bolts etc.

Ive tried to contact dan@mad with no luck.

Thanks

He only trades on eBay now mate, If you search eBay they will come up under his company.

I would imagine 10mm would scrub on the rear personally. I am on Cooksports, running 15mm on the rear of mine on a 16x7 ET40 rim with 195/45's and it rubs occasionally with weight in the rear of the car.

Fronts should be okay but again I couldn't tell you for sure as I run 1.5degree of camber and again it's on 195/45's.

Thanks mate, i could go 5mm at the rear with original bolts, but will it effect the handling with the track much wider at the front than the back?

I have seen his ebay ads, but i would need longer bolts for his 10mm ones and im not sure which ones i need tbh, plus i want 19mm hex so i can put my nut covers over them, i dont like the shiny bolts against the dark wheels lol.

Ill probably end up getting polarised tpi ones when i eventually have all my spacers on etc, so i know definitely what size bolts i need.

It wouldn't make any difference mate, the wider the track the better but you don't want it rubbing.

If your intent on getting 10mm rears I would get the bolt to hub spacers personally that fit behind the discs, between the stub axle and the beam like I have. That way you don't have to worry about longer bolts and it will stop the increased wear on the rear wheel bearings.

Can't you just order some standard 19mm hex wheel bolts but 5mm longer in length mate.. Standard wheel bolts are 12x1.5 28mm in length so I would just try and get some 33mm in length and then it's job done.. Don't know if I would trust running 5mm spacers with standard length bolts personally.
