Steel wheels and wheel spacers?
hi guys,
i ordered a set of 16in steelies w/blizzaks for my mazdaspeed 3. stock wheels are 18in w/summer tires, and this car will be my winter DD, so i needed something better.
i mounted a front wheel the other day, and it is really, really, really close to the calipers. i was thinking of ordering either 3mm or 5mm wheel spacers.
my question is, has anyone used wheel spacers w/steel wheels? i checked out h&r's site, they have spacers specific for the ms3...but i also saw some random vendor's site, and the spacers they sell were "not for use with steel wheels"...
thanks for any info

We do not carry the spacers but H and R is very good. A 3 mm spacer should be fine.

Woohoo, I'm glad I visited an S2000 site to hear about a Mazda.
