I'm looking to get 10-12mm wheel spacers for my ITR. I can't seem to find a reputable site to get them from. Anyone know of any?

 

I am sure ebay has plenty

Why do you want to get them?
Are you planning on getting longer studs?

 

yea ebay prob. has alot. i got mine from my local tuner shop. and i would recomend getting extended studs if you didnt plan on it already

 

Be careful what you get on ebay. These guys make some nice spacers

I checked ebay. nothin but crap on there. I plan on running stock studs, do you guys think 10mm will be too much for stock studs?

 

personaly i wouldnt run stock studs with 10mm spacers but it might work..

 

project kics or ichiba

 

You wont be able to run a 10mm spacer on stock studs. Get H&R spacers, they are TUV approved.

 

the maximum is 6mm for me on stock studs. It's pretty dangerous to have 10mm spacer on oem studs.

The extended studs are not too expensive anyway, spend a little bit more and it would probably end up saving your life

 

thanks for the advice guys

 

you want to have 7 to 10 full turns of your lugs on your studs. that is the general rule. a 10mm spacer would not give you enough turns from your lugs to the wheel to properly secure your wheel on your hub.... get extended studs.

 

I'm running 7mm spacers all around on my 5lug setup and each lug nut gets 9 full turns. Been like this for over 6 months, daily driven 30-40 miles a day with no issues.

 

I'd go with H&R, they seem like the safest bet.

 

:SMILE:

where did you find 7mm spacers??

 

not to hi jack the thread but Ive been doing some research lately on this and I was wondering about two things...


Does the spacer cause an inbalance between the wheel and the hub and cause shaking at all at high speeds??

And also, has anyone safely driven on 10mm spacers without any issues with the studs??

Check out the link I posted up above. They have some video of the difference between spacers that fit and "universal/crap spacers. The crap ones could definitely cause an imbalance.

I don't know if anyone's had issues with stock studs and 10mm spacers, but I don't think I would want to be the guy who finds out.

yeah I already read the whole article, but he doesnt explain the 5mm to 10mm difference.. Damn, haha i havent heard of anything happening but people have been skeptacle about it.

Maybe i should just do 5mm, btw his spacers are a pretty good price if your gettin what he says you are. Ebay ones are just $20 cheaper / set...

 

i have used 5mm ones, 3mm ones that were sandwich type spacers (non-hub/lug centric) and i never had balance problems and rolled them for over a couple years at one time. most i have ever ran on hondas was 7mm without extended studs... if you need the 10 mm them for sure get the extended studs..

and if you wanna do it all legit just get some custom ones that are lug/hub centric to your car and hub centric to your rims...

Those are not hubcentric, I wouldnt run those, I told you.... buy H and R hubcentric spacers, have them milled down to the correct size if you want
