Dynamique Spacers Help

[Bloooor]

I've bourght some 172 alloys with 205/40 tyres on them. Put them on and realised the back left was rubbing contstantly so swapped it to the front left (as the front left didn't have a wheel protecter tyre on and it seems ok. Put my hand down the back and it was about 1cm away from the side arch wall...

What spacers are reccomended for these wheels on a non-RS? I don't mind how far they stick out but I want to hopefully lower the car to about 70mm at the back and 60mm at the front on coilovers.

Any help would be great

Cheers, Adam

5mm for the rear to stop it scrubbing. 15mm all round will look loads better, me and Has fitted some on his old 1.2 and it looked spot on!

I have some eibach ones that i got off here. Cost me around £40 i think, but if your goin for ones that are 10mm + its best to get extra long bolts. Be careful though as they wear away your wheel bearings much quicker.

Did has have 172 wheels on or wheels with similar offset? will go for some 15mm's all around if so

Is this with hubcentric spacers aswell? Is it a pain to fix or expensive when the bearings go?

Thanks

Yeh he had 172 wheels on his 1.2 before he sold it. You'll need hubcentric spacers and longer bolts with 15mm, think it all tots up to about 80 notes or so. Bloody dear for some chunks of metal tbh, but they are the only things holding the wheels on so I wouldn't skimp.

Bearing wear isn't massively increased, and they're not too bad/expensive to do when they go.

I got 10's on the rear and 25's on the front

costs me 130 to get one rear bearing replaced, part was only like 45 though
