Wheel spacers - Help needed

[497adam]

Does anybody know of a wheel spacer that will fit rear wheels without fouling rear brakes?

 

[James28]

I didn't know there were any spacers that fouled the rear brakes?

 

[JackJack]

Won't rub on the brakes but you will have to watch it doesn't make the tyre rub the outer arch.

tried those universal ones, too big overlapped pads. can you suggest some that don't ?

 

[stephen chadwick]

ones made specifically for the clio would be a start, universal ones cause horrid wheel wobble

 

[497adam]

do you know of any?

 

[JackJack]

Look on venom motorsport.

I have eibach 15mm all round on mine. No fouling whatsoever.

only need 3 to 5 mm. Fitted 205 tyres to my standard 172 rim and they are catching arch liners

15mm on mine rubbed on the arches like mad

Fk do some 5mm ones do you think I need longer bolts?

always buy hubcentric specific to your model of car..... i have a set of eibach 25mm spacer that bolt directly to the hub then you bolt your wheel to the spacer.. safest way to go. you dont want to compromise on safety. good set of spacers like these will cost you anywhere between 60 to 100 odd quid. mine were 115 quid. the build quality on the eibach ones are immense tho

Where did you buy them from? Can you get them in a smaller size?

Delta Mic's are the cheapest bolt on 15/25mm hubcentric spacers you can get, or that ive found at least, around £50 posted iirc from motorsportworld.

Also the Fk list...

anyone got the delta mic ones? they any good or cheap shite?

 

[Elfy]

I had them on my old Punto but only on the rear and never had a problem but I swear I have seen a thread on here where someone had problems with them failing on the front?

They are fine, had a 25mm set of the front of my current car for 6 months and had 15mm set of the front of my previous 172 for over a year. The bolts that come with the 15mm set are s**te though, you will need to change them. However if you go for 25mm they bolts it comes with (to bolt them to your discs) are fine. I've just bought B Centric 20mm FK fronts and A Centric 5mm FK rears, around £30 more than the Delta Mics and are made from alloy rather than steel and as such are a s**t load lighter.
