HELP with spacers pls

[ArthurPE]

Well 99% of us run 10mm H&R spacers, so what's going on then?

what part number are you using?

the whole thing
162555716 mza 7x45 6/9A
or something similar

I had these 10mm H&R spacers on my car and I never had any problems with them (150mm face hubcentrics).

The marking on the side:- H&R 2055571 MZA 4x45 7/10. I can see sonny's is 202555712 MZA ??? What's the difference?

it's confusing as heck

I have an emal into HR germany

I measured my oem wheels and the bevel is 7 x 7 (base x height) which is 7 x 45 deg
I'll check again and may pull a wheel to measure the hub bevel and the spacer inside and outside bevels

I will get a reply from the place where i brought my spacers from tomorrow, I will let you know what they say, Cheers

this is what i have on mine also - bought them from Revolution - invoice states HR-S2055571B and for the 8mm fronts HR-S1655572

Scottie, Thats the same part number mine have on them, (rears) I take it yours fitted with no problems, It was only about 1mm from fitting flush against the hub and you had to look hard to see they did not quite go fully home,

I've just picked up the following and been assured they are correct. I'm at MRC for healthcheck/inspection tomorrow and plan to get these fitted so will let you know if all OK.

Rear 10mm - on the box 2055571A (on the spacer H&R 2055571 MZA 6,5x45 01/12 D)

Front 8mm - on the box 1655572 (on the spacer H&R 1655572 MZA 7x45 11/11 D)

Well lets see if I can add to the confusion...

Rear (10mm)

Box - 2055571B
Spacer - 2055571 MZA 4x45 3/10

Front (8mm)

Box - 1655572
Spacer - 1655572 MZA 7x45 10/10

Both boxes also have the following writing on them - "Nur fur felgen mit Innenfase mind 4x45" or "Nur fur felgen mit Innenfase mind 7x45" which seems to be relating to the bevel angle.

So unless we have different pitches front & rear at least one of my sets is wrong, although I have fitted and removed them several times and fit seemed perfect, although come to think of it there should also be a problem with the fit to the wheels as presumably both bevels are made at the same angle ?

Would be interesting to hear what HR have to say about the bevel angles and our cars.

I would probably agree with you about the 1mm, possibly less hence why im watch this thread with interest.

Well have just had a look at a spare wheel, and the depth where the bevel locates is 5mm so I would say a 5mm bevel is the correct fit. Of course a longer bevel would just protrude through the wheel so wouldn't be a problem there, however the hub fit would be off. My guess is the 4mm bevels I have on the rear are not quite seated correctly although guess would have to measure the hub to be certain and work out the consequences.

I was measuring with a steel rule so it is hard to be certain but looking at the fit as well as the ruler I am pretty sure 5mm is spot on. Arthur did you measure the wheel itself as you measured 7mm, but I have only got 5 mm so maybe I am wrong ?

Edit - just realised I was measuring the height of the alignment ring not the bevel itself - I make the bevel inside the wheel 11mm.

Been having a look around for more details, and the only site I could find that stocked both and had a list of supported models is below, and this suggest 2055571A are correct, however the S4 is listed on both??
