Wheel Spacers - Flush Fitment
Usually cars come with the wheels buried inside the quarter panels or front fenders. To bring them out a little and have a flush fitment look you can purchase and install wheel spacers. This vehicle has 15mm wheel spacers in the rear and 10mm wheel spacers in the front. As you can see the fitment is perfect.

Not sure if it will rub or not when lowered because it all depends on what tires/wheels your running and what drop your planing on getting.
We sell 15mm spacers in black w/ black bolts for $80 shipped. They are hub centric as well. |

Any vibration? I was told that you would have to go w/ at least 13mm in front + rear in order to have no gap between the spacer and the hub?

You can fit other spacer sizes on there... but you have to file down the hub lip. |

Any pics of this larger rear hub lip? How much larger is it than the front?

Did you install extended lugs or did the 10mm and 15mm fit without any problems?

If you decide to use the OEM bolts, be sure to video tape it and upload it to YouTube. You'll become famous like this dude. Last edited by ƒ°; 01-16-2013 at 12:50 PM.. |

You def. need longer bolts. You can purchase spacers HERE, they come with extended lugs and I'm running them with no issues.
Here are some photos of my car running spacers as well: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showpo...4&postcount=23 |

Have you had any rubbing issues over big bumps or speed bumps after your drop?

I was planning on coming to the coding meeting on 2/2/13 at your store, but can't anymore... I'd love to get coding/spacers done at the same time! I have a 20mm drop from stock height, let me know if that'll work... I was told I had to go with 12mm F and 15mm R here: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=786701
