5mm spacers
5mm spacers
OK, I may have asked this before, but is anyone actually running (or has run) 5mm spacers??
I will shortly be fitting 295 tyres and want to add the spacers so that the inner clearance is unchanged (outside face will then be +10mm).
However slightly concerned that at 5mm they won't be hub centric and I may therefore run into centering issues and vibration.
And any of our site sponsors got a view, or want to sell me the spacers and bolts??

Re: 5mm spacers
I used 5mm spacers briefly with no issues.
Edit: actually, not sure I ever drove on them as the bolts were too short.

Re: 5mm spacers
Mike - do you still have them/want to sell them??
I can source bolts - I think the OEM ones are 27mm, so presume 32mm is what is needed.

Re: 5mm spacers
I think I ordered the bolts but changed my suspension before they turned up.
Let me check what I have when I get home. I think they will be OK though as the bolts do a pretty good job of centering everything.

Re: 5mm spacers
I still have them but to be honest I just looked up what I paid for them and it's not worth me selling them. I paid £39 from amazon. To sell them now as 2nd hand it wouldn't be worth the hassle of packaging them up and going to post them at that price.
FYI I only use H&R spacer and bolts. The closest H&R bolts I could find for 5mm spacers were 31mm.

Re: 5mm spacers
These the ones??

Spec: H&R DR-System Wheel spacer set 10mm per axle - PCD 5x112 - Hub 66,5mm - I think that's the right ones even though it says Merc in the Ad??

And the part number matches the one in my photo.
Re: 5mm spacers
All ordered (incl 31mm bolts).
Also ordered the tyres, Mich PS4S at 295/30
Not cheap - but worth every penny - now I have to be patient till they arrive and I can get them on
Thanks for the help
