    Buying Spacers

    When I get the money back from taxes this year I want to buy a set of spacers so I can get the probe wheels on the tudor and see how its going to look. I know a few other guys here are running them, did you just buy the eBay specials? I know a while back mike had some problems with the threads on them and lug nuts, just trying to avoid any extra costs getting them to work right.

      X2. Hubcentric is what you want. I am still thinking of getting rid of mine and getting some nice ones.

          Thats maximum motorsports for you. You know why their tubular K-members for Mustangs are nearly $700 and others are as low as $200? Because they are the best.

            I have eBay special aluminum ones. No issues or complaints with them really. The only minor point, which honestly cannot be blamed on the manufacturer, is that the studs from the stock hub stick past the end of the spacer and would need to be ground flush if I didn't have a wheel that had recesses for the studs to stick into.

              Unless they changed something, the spacers that are over 1/4" are from H&R.

              I got my spacers from them awhile ago. They were one of few places that actually carry spacers in stock. Most places special order.
