What Spacers to go for???

[rob-blair4]

hey guys i have just swapped a set of 17" alloys for some 16" clio sport (5 spokes) and they're rubbing on the back on the inner plastics, i wanted to space the alloys out flush anyway, been looking at the different spacers but what should i be looking for hubcentric or normal ???

Cheers Rob

Depends how much you need to space them. If only a few mm then normal. If you're talking 15mm or more you're better off hubcentric.

would i need hubcentric spacers for all four corners or just the front?

If you're spacing all the wheels further than 15mm i'd suggest hubcentric on all of them. I've got 20mm hubcentric on the front and 15mm hubcentric on the rear.

any pics and recommendations mate?

It all depends on your car and wheels. You're better off asking others who have done it before. I'm not sure what the setup is like on smaller engined Clio's.

Would always go hubcentric as it is the safest option. H&R Trak+ are the ones I'd reccomend.
