wheel spacer advice for my ph1

[imprezaworks]

Over the past few days, in fact on and off for sometime I look at the car and think the front wheels are tucked in too much. Coilovers are fk konigsport and its lowered, not massively though. So best place and which ones do people recommend? And are they easy enough to fit? The latter may be a daft question but I've never looked in to it. Cheers guys,

Dan.

i used H&R hubsentric spacers verry good quality and is a simple as taking of the wheel bolting the spacer on like you would a wheel (correct torque) then bolt the wheel to the spacer.

 

[imprezaworks]

Had a feeling it would be as straight forward as that. Did you notice any difference when you fitted them? Also any idea what size I would need?

 

[dmallett]

Running the standard wheels? if so 20mm or 25mm hubcentrics for the front should be alright! my mate has 25mm spacers on the front on the Oz F1s with no scrubbing etc.

I also run 25mm delta mics, heavier tha the more expensive aluminium but only £50ish delivered from motorsport world. I also have no rubbing, but run williams wheels.

 

[stephen chadwick]

i used 20mm but it does depend on the tyre and et of the wheel your using. i have a ph2 tho so may be different on a ph1. as for difference the car felt allot more 'stable'

I've got std 15" oz's on mine with no intention of going bigger. Cheap tyres ftw. Best place to get them from?

 

[stephen chadwick]

i got mine from euro performance (only place i could find them) 120ish a pair. others on here may know were to get them cheaper

 

[dmallett]

Youll be fine with 25s then, and yes cheap tyres!

Same job, but made of steel so heavier.

ps. you might have to select renault and clio if that link doesnt go straight to it. They come with bolts also and fits direct onto our cars as ive had some

 

[imprezaworks]

Nice one mate. Will look in to them tomo when I'm in work. Cheers for the help guys.

I run 25mm up front too, looks good with the ET43 OZ F1s, makes such a difference looks wise when they're fitted. I just bought cheapo steel hubcentrics for about £60.

 

[imprezaworks]

Where from mate? Did you notice any improvement in how it drove?

 

[Jewson172]

Just the advice i needed too. I found these of the Bay. I've just emailed the guy to double check if they are bolt to hub.

Let me know how you get on pls mate. Although I'd be looking for 20mm minimum
