should i?

Postby seanography » Thu Aug 29, 2013 6:51 pm

should i buy some spacers from ebay to space out my stock wheels?

I would like to try 20mm spacers in the back and 15mm spacers in the front. Would i need any mods to the guards?

Cheers,

Anything smaller than 25mm* you'll need to cut/grind your stock studs down.
And you'll still have 7" wide stock wheels.

* Unless your wheels have the indentations/space in the hub for the stocks to poke into.

Either get some bolt on spacers or slip ons and have to replace all your wheel studs with longer ones.

Both are illegal

thanks for the advice guys

might as well wait to buy new wheels.

just don't like how the wheels are so tucked into the body. :cry:
