What wheel spacers for standard rims, tyres and wheel arches?

I would like to fit some wheel spacers and wanted to know what size offset I could use if I stick to the standard rims, tyre size and wheel arches?

Also would I need to fit extended wheel bolts?

Use at your peril the extended stud are made from rubbish steel spend the extra few quid and buy the spacers that bolt to the hub with HT nuts then have HT studs coming out of them to bolt your wheels to

I fitted the cheaper one's - see here

the cheaper ones have been fine for me for highway use, but the more expensive blue machined aluminium spacers are obviously better and are recommend for those extra stresses that off-roading would put on them

Each to there own all im saying is rub a file accoss the extenion stud somwhere where it doesnt matter then do the same on a wheel stud you will instanly feel the diffence.
Hex bar that they are made from is mild steel or even in some cases free cutting or leadloy as it was nicknamed and is way down in strenght far below an 8.8 grade bolt as for wheel studs they are way up around the the stenght of 12.9 grade allen bolts so you are introducing a weak link betwwen your wheel and hub by using extenion studs
:woohoo:

you're quite right, but where not talking about drag racing :laugh: :laugh:

like I said, the blue ones are better, hence they're more expensive. The bits4vits aren't as good and hence cheaper - but they still appear to work fine for loads of people on this site.

If you can afford it go for the blues and if that's just pocket change for you, then why not go for the best option - offset rims :evil:
