Front Wheel Spacers, Are They Safe?

[f0xy]

after having the car dropped i like the way the back wheels fill the arches (wheels are ET37)... although the fronts look like they are set back in the arches, and i want to make them look further out... is it safe to use 'hubcentric' spacers or whatever theyre called, and would i need longer bolts with 5mm spacers?

cheers.

Yeah sure is, just get proper ones and longer bolts as you say. Eibach make them

I've fitted 5mm eibach spacers all round with 5mm longer bolts. They are absolutely fine and I'm a mechanical engineer.

The handling is really improved too.
