Can anyone recommend wheel spacers?

 

Yes, I can...

I've had them for almost 2 years and no issues, I take them off when I switch to winter wheels and tires.
They seem great so far just use a torque wrench to install them. I have 20mm's on my 13 and they are just about right imo.

 

Can you feel any difference in ride and cornering w/ the spacers, or are they mainly for aesthetics?

 

I don't feel any difference in either but I'm sure some people will, it's only a 1.5 inch increase total. I didn't like how the wheels were recessed stock.

 

Looks like they have 4 different design types. Do you recall which one you bought?

 

I went with design 3 for oem wheels, some people say he's a dork to deal with but I didn't have any problems.

 

I like the look Gerf. Sounds like an easy mod too!

 

Thanks,ya easy peasy.

There aren't many mods for these cars just repair after repair

 

what’s the purpose of the spacers

 

Thanks @Gerf , I’ll check them out. @dubsta1 , personally I just want some 15mm spacers for the rear to even them out with the front. After measuring wheel to fender there is a difference of about a half inch. I have 22x9 Vossens w/ a +32 offset all around and notice the fronts are more flush with fender than the rears.

Kind of hard to notice in this pic. I will post another pic after spacer.

 

@Gerf I just placed order for the same spacers you have, except I opted for the silver finish to save a couple weeks on delivery!

My question is, was this a straight plug and play install, or did you have to shave off anything from OEM studs for the spacer to have a flat mounting surface to the wheels?

TIA!

 

With OEM wheels everything fits perfect, nothing has to be shaved. The studs are marked 10.9 grade and are the same length as the OEM.

I tried some Akata spacers before these and the studs and nuts were just not right...the nuts were a bit loose on the threads and the threads were very rough.
The spacers looked fine so I kept them and turfed the hardware, they are 15mm and not quite wide enough.

 

Received my spacers after 3 weeks, as they’re made to order in Reno, NV USA!

Went with @Gerf rec, & ordered 4 20mm type 3 spacers from Motorsport tech. Link is on the 2nd post.

They’re 100% plug n play with 2013 f sport 19” wheels. Zero modifications needed.

I have a data system controller & ride on level 3 all around. The spacers def compliment a lowered ride.

IMO, if you’re riding on stock wheels stock height, these are NOT necessary.

anyhow, took about 2 hours using the oem floor Jack in my garage, in sweltering 120F.

 

Those look great!
I don't remember if I asked this before but what finish is on your wheels, I like that blacked out look.
Have to ask, in the last picture the spacer nut at 10 o'clock doesn't look like it's on as many threads as the rest and there seems to be a gap on the right hand side of all the nuts...maybe I'm seeing things.

 

Thanks!

Wheels are powder coated semi gloss black. The shop owner said full gloss would show scratches the first time it’s wiped w/ a dirty rag.

Keen eye, sir. Lol. I was in the process of hand tightening nuts, sweat dripping in my eyes and all, & decided I should take a quick pic.
