What size spacers

Post by Mav8 » Wed Jun 12, 2019 4:29 pm

Had a quick look but decided to ask the question anyway. I’ve put my OEM wheels back on after running my C6 winter wheels.
I like the OEM look but they need a little bit of spacing.
What size spacers are people running and any pics would be great.
Many thanks

Could someone also post the part no’s. I ordered a set from eBay, genuine H&R, which were listed as fitting the B7 only to have the order cancelled by the seller as they said that there is an issue with fitment.

Cheers

make sure you don't get 6.5x45, they will fit sloppy...others have attributed poor design for this slop, it is the wrong part
