Where can I get a 3mm spacer that is specific for our lug pattern? I only seem to see universals which I have now and can not get to seat centered.

just keep using the universals but becareful when mounting the wheels. I think the smallest hubcentric spacers you can buy are 5mm.

and shave the 5mm down to 3mm.

 

The smallest is 3, I have one now, its just universal and sucks because its impossible to center it.

not worth the machine labor/work to shave down a $5 dollar universal spacer. Best route is getting correct offset wheels or avoiding bbks.

The wheel should "center" when you tightening the lug nuts and you shouldn't have to rely on a hubcentric spacer or wheel for proper wheel fitment on the hub. Truely **** mechanics will not recommend an aftermarket wheel that isn't hubcentric but many run non-hubcentric wheels/spacers with no adverse affects. Torque with caution.

 

Well the BBK was supposed to fit without spacers, Ill thank Spugen for that. Its just to close to the wheel, that any type of vibration makes it graze it. Not bad, but I guess any kind of touching is bad.

My Volks feel fine even with out centric rings, but its just this spacer I can not get seated centered. Even not centered it doesnt vibrate or shimy, but I was just looking for one maybe in our lug patter.

Thanks Dylan, I searched forever and couldnt find it, but 3mm $72? I paid 4 bucks for my universals. Damn it.

you might be better off getting a machine shop to either machine you new wheel spacers or getting a laser cutter to cut them out for you. It would definately be cheaper than $72. You might need a hubcentric spacer for the machine shop to go by.
