MH 215/65-15 DOT, Gasburners and short axles
SOB/RFH:
I hyave converted to 5*130 pattern and have bolts 10.9 threded in from the backside of the hub. The hex head is still there and I have countersunked the holes for a flat support.The spacer is a supertight fit thing made on a CNC machine out of billet aluminum.....no "made in China copy and smile" compromise. No color on anything torqued together. I have the long bolt sticking out the maximum and Porsche aluminum nuts (13 gram each)........more then 600 runs on the combo!! Happiness is a Hot VW!!

BeetleBug, why don't you ask first one of the Porsche aftermarket parts dealer? I don't know if you have some in Norway (but I bet you have) but here in Germany we have tons of them. Just two of them:
http://www.m-freisinger.de/ -> Expensive, but got everything.
http://www.mittelmotor.de/ -> Also very good selection of aftermarket parts
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Georg

I have been in contact with one Norwegian Porsche dealer and they wanted 625 EUR for two 1" spacers :-X TUV certified but to be honest they could have every certificate in the world and I still would not have bought them for that price.
I will start with buying two from the us, including freight and tax they will cost just above 100 USD.
I appreciate your help Georg!
Best rgs

That is a REAL Porsche price! Crazy! :o
Good luck with the US parts anyway!

my friend runs gas burners with the M&H dot 215 tires on his 65 bug. it is on an irs pan so basically sits like long axles. he did not have to use spacers at all. if you need spacers i can get you laser cut aluminum spacers in 1/8", and 3/8" (pretty sure those are the sizes) i had to use the 1/8" size on my zwitter with th early 6" fuchs. i think they were around $75
i am in the usa so they would need to be mailed
