Spaced out, 25mm yo

[Charlie.]

Fitted some 25mm Delta Mics hubcentric spacers today, still could be wider imo, not sure if i should get some for the rears.

Anyways.

BEFORE

DURING

AFTER

 

[jesus]

Looks a lot better

 

[Greeny.]

Looking good

 

[clio_luke]

i think the rears need to be done.
front looks good.

 

[peppemanca]

can anyone tell me if this is worth doing to 172 to try and achive a wider trace, i.e. better road handling and cornoroing ability?? makes ur car look a lot better mate

Ive just litterally finished doing the exact same thing but gone front and back

do you have a problem with them knocking at 30? sounds horrible im going to have to have a gander tomorrow i think

I have just put 25mm on the front of mine aswel, after putting the sport body on it just dont look right with out them, im thinking of putting like 10mm spacers on the back but dont know if i should bother

take them off and refit them mate, when i had my wheels off and put them back on i got some knocking, because the wheel wasnt dead flat against the hub, means some bolts are in tighter then others

Looks good mate, really makes a difference i think :approve:

I would get some 25's for the rear aswell...how much is it lowered by?

Don't know if 25s on the rear would cause problemos, not sure how much its lowered by, i started a thread on it the other week, most people think 50mm

Looks good but.....

Looks awesome that. Loads better.

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah i hope your wheels don't fall off!

 

[Greeny.]

Make sure you dont use the Delta Mic bolts supplied, they are dire and will snap as proven by members on here!

 

[Timmay]

much better

 

[Paul.M]

lmao!
yeah I also hope this doesnt happen to you either
i'd suggest replacing the bolts

Dunno why people bother. The 'looks good init' gang obviously dont drive hard enough. When i tried a set of 16mm on the 197 it was all over the place, tramlining, unstable/twitchy under braking. Imo your f**king up the handling big time. And why would you only put them on one axle? :S

 

[JCC]

It's mainly for looks on reps as they look silly as fook without them...

 

[franx]

trie a wheel with different offset !? (same effect ?) for example, standard was ET 45 , get a wheel with ET 30

this is what i would def prefer above spacers

 

[Tigger]

What about a decent spacer with studs - surely that should be ok?

 

[Ali]

Need to lose that splitter...Don't know why people fit them...It's horrible.

I didn't, couldn't tighten them too well as the heads are really short and i slipped at bashed my face into the wing lol used normal nuts and locking nut

Mate, i have a 1.2, it gets me to work, i don't go on track and haven't noticed my handling is shite, only on one axle because i've got RS wings

If i bought some aftermarket wheels i would but without the spacers it looked shite with 172s

I don't love it, it was a freebie, i ripped it off my mums old laguna when it got scrapped and was gonna sell it, but got bored and fitted it, looks better then without imo

 

[Charlie.]

Oh didnt realise on pauls car it was the bolts that fix to the hub :|

anyone know what size i need to get some decent replacements?
