Title: Wheel Spacers Post by: Chris W on July 05, 2008, 16:39:25 pm I am running Gas Burners with re-drilled drums on short axles and the tire just kisses the spring plate and upper body mount. Would a 5 mm spacer be acceptable on each wheel stud?

Title: Re: Wheel Spacers Post by: ian c on July 05, 2008, 17:21:11 pm a quality made hub-centric spacer will do , as long as your wheel studs are long enough .
porsche sell iirc 6mm and 17mm . people like ruf and techart sell various sizes . if you follow zachs advice , and get the spacing right and upgrade the brakes in one swoop , this has got to be better than spacers .

Title: Re: Wheel Spacers Post by: Chris W on July 11, 2008, 20:02:32 pm After measuring I don't have enough room on the studs for spacers so........I might swap for long axles or Type 3 brakes. 13mm would be perfect I just need to find some brakes. :)
