Like the header says i am looking at a set of `7 x 7.5 with a 45 offset. I have been looking at other threads and i can not find a defenit answer. i

was told they will fit however they will be sunk in and may not look correct.

So what mm spacer will i need to use to make hem sit flush. And will i need any spacers in the front or just in the back?

thanks

 

I'd go with a 20mm. That would give a nice push. Any more than that and you'll have difficulty wrangling the e-brake line back in place.

 

this may be a stupied question but do i use spacers on the front and back or only on the back?

 

You don't really need em up front. Unless you wanna go really flush, but unless you keep it under 5mm, you gotta swap studs, and that's annoying.

 

On my Trak Lites i had a 15mm hub spacer in the rear The Trak Lites are About the same size as your wheels (15x8 +42).

 

^ Yea, it all depends on how flush you wanna go.

 

So sorry im a noob for askin this and this is my way of doin research..what are spacers pimarly for? Is it to allow a 4 lug car the ability to run on a 5 lug?

 

That would be a hub adapter and it will also space the wheel out as most are @ least 25mm in size.

A hub spacer sits behind the hub and pushes the hub out closer to the fender, while a wheel spacer sits between the wheel and the hub pushing the wheel closer to the fender.

 

Are these things safe on high speeds?

 

That is debated all over forums.

I had teh universal WHEEL spacers on my front wheels for a while but the would vibrate @ high speeds. Didn't have any problems with them on the back though.

Hub spacer bolt in right behind the hub so you use new longer bolts. I've heard horror stories where the bolts came loose or broke while driving. But I nor any of the other bB Squad guys have had problems. Just use some red or blue loctite on them and they wont go anywhere.

 

so having spacers allows you to have wider rims right?

 

Sort of the spacer makes it appear that you have wider rims. If you have an 8" wide wheel with a +10 offset in the rear the wheel should be almost exactly flush with the fender.

+25 offset in the front will be flush with the front

 

oh i see thanks
