BUMP, and @the OG's of this thread??? I looked pretty much like all the pages but cannot find that BB Ap1 with the blacked out Ap1 OEMs, can someone please quote that. Just got a ap1 with OEMs, and want to do the same and be different instead of buying new wheels .

what is the difference between hubcentric and just regular anyway? any pros/cons or advantages to running either?

sorry for the thread jack

I wish I went with a little larger spacer, I'm pretty low(tucks tire tread all the way around) and the spacers still have it sunk in a little bit. Doesn't rub at all though.

18mm Front
20mm Rear

Better idea on the fitment, again 18mm Front 20mm rear. Front is flat rolled with zero pull, rear is rolled and relocated tab. No rubbing whatsoever.



Edit: Front spacers are a 15mm Ichiba v2 with a custom machined 3mm spacer behind that bolt on spacer(plenty of lug length to do this) to total 18mm, rear is just a straight 20mm Ichiba v2. All four are hub-centric and the lugs are a bit longer than OEM however they do not poke through the OEM lugs as I am using OEM lugs. No vibrations at 80mph.

hey guys, can any of you give me some pointers of going 25mm all around on 225/255? (fender roll --> how much does it rub with fender roll?, front fenders.. should i get them flared? etc etc.) im on buddy club n+ and about the same ride height as Froth

i just went through this whole thread but thought i should ask for better details. thanks

Im going back to my v3s for a bit, does anyone have any experience using spacers with v3? I saw a few posts back that the recess is small? Im dumped but my fenders are rolled so im not worried about rubbing, but I am worried about hitting the wheel? What size would be best? Im thinking of running 25mm rear and 20mm front

Careful with optionsselect vendor on eBay. I got the 20mm spacers for the front, and they came ep with extended studs which are too long for the stock lug nuts.

When I let them know, they suggested I use an open ended aftermarket lugnut (with my stock wheels). When I let them know that you can't run aftermarket lugs with the stock wheels I didn't hear anything back.

Now I think I need to try the 15mm ones since the picture above shows normal sized studs. the eBay auctions do not show the proper spacer so you have absolutely no reference point when buying.

Did the stud break through the lug nut? I bought 20mm and 25mm spacers from them with not problems using my lug nuts.
