Wheel Spacers

Post by Simran »

Does anyone know of a shop that doesnt charge the earth for wheel spacers? theyre only a ring of aluminium and if i had access to the uni machines id make some up. I need to know prices for probably 20mm spacers and if there is such a thing, that converts from ford fitment wheels to PSA. Ive seen the perfect set of wheels and need to total up costs before i buy them, the Compomotive TH, not sure whether black or polished would look best, erring on the black in 7x15s but if i cant find spacers, will need to get them machined to fit. http://www.dubmeister.co.uk

They'd look awesome frankly!

I have some spacers myself, but not sure on the hub size they fit.

Yup, really like the existing ZX rims with the silver paintwork.
Although I do like the old compomotive style rims too.

If i do end up getting these wheels, i will be keeping the ZX ones as i like them as much, but ive always liked the compos and never had a car worthy of fitting them to. I will hunt around for the spacers and hopefully after a bit of saving, i may have a set on my car. :D
