Rear wheel spacer size

I have 18x9 in rear, the fronts look good but i want to bring the backs out a little with spacers, should I go with 5 or 10mm spacers? I found some good prices

RE: Rear wheel spacer size

you should go with 5 so i can win those 10's on ebay.. i'm sure i need them more than you...i ran over something last night and it slightly bent the inside of my rim.. anyhow its rubbing up against the wheel well now so i need those spacers so it would clear.. :) .. i think you should buy 19's before you buy spacers anyhow.. hehe..

You gotta be F%&*ing kidding me...Again! You should trade that bitch in for an Abrahms tank.

I don't know about 5mm, but when my 10mm arrived I thought man this is nothing, looks like a 1/2 inch or so. But when they are on it make a huge difference.

RE: Rear wheel spacer size

well whats cool about florida is the always are working on pipes and shit on the sides of roads which means they have to rip up the roads in certain parts.. and when they do this they have to put a huge metal plank over the spot on the road they ripped up.. well if you are driving 70 down a dark road with woods on both sides.. and you dont have xenons or brights on.. that shit will come up out of nowhere which is what happened.. so if you are driving 70.. and you hit a big ass piece of metal sticking up from the ground about 3 inches its gonna do something to your car.. i'm pretty fucking pissed actually i wish i could get the county to pay for this but i highly doubt they will even take my phone call seriously..

luckily i took all my wheels off today and there is only 1 thats bent.. but it fucking rubs on this one spot in the fender .. so i'm hoping this spacers will help to clear that spot.. ;)

Not at all. The 10mm H&R are hubcentric. They have a lip that goes into the center of the rotor and holds them in place. Pop them on, line up the holes and your done.

This is what you need to get for those roads, bro.

RE: Rear wheel spacer size

i hope there is a lip for my wheel to sit on on those spacers.. because its kindof hard to hold up a 30 pound wheel with one hand and bolt it into place with the other..
