Wheel spacers.....help romini :)
I know this subject has been discussed but I couldnt find my answer.
I tried mounting my new wheels today and they are touching the front and rear caliper. So I need a 4 or 5mm spacer for the front. H&R makes a 5mm spacer but I need to know if the studs are already in the new spacer??
Then I need a 2mm spacer for the rear....need help finding a good quality, hubcentric spacer. Please let me know of a good place.
Finally....my wheels are 19x8.5 19x9.5 with +38mm (02 gs430) all around.......so if I put the 5mm spacer on the front, they would be equal to a +33mm offset???? Is this correct??? Then adding 2mm spacer to rear would be +36mm??
Do you think I will have rubbing issues with the spacers??? I have a 1.2" drop right now.
Thanks for the help everyone.....

for anything 5mm or less, i don't think there is such thing as hub centric
you are correct on the new offset numbers. front is close, depending on tires you might rub the edge. for the rear it's close too, depend on tire as well
need longer studs or not it depends on the wheels and how many turns you can get on the lug nuts now. to be safe get them of course
