Bump for suggestions

What offset are your 19x8.5 wheels?

[oakenfolde]

I believe they are +38..

if you have 8.5" wheels with ET38 then you are already sitting flush in the front and won't need any spacers; however you could add 5-8mm in the rears.

[oakenfolde]

yea understandable.

i just want to have a low, wide look

ok say im going to get 8mm H&R spacers.. do i need to buy extended bolts or anything? which kind?

[tribe]

The kind of bolt depends on the wheels. OEM wheels use "ball seat" . The OEM lugs are 28mm long so add to that the 8mm or whatever size spacers you get

[oakenfolde]

so ill need 36mm lugs. hmm

[oakenfolde]

im confused they dont have 36mm and what is 14x1??


closest i see is H&R ball seat 14x1.5x35mm wheel bolt

after you get the wheels, suspension and alignment completed, measure the available space then you can figure it out from there.

btw, sounds like you have aftermarket wheels, 'most likely' you'll need cone/conical/tapered type bolts.

i do have aftermarket wheels

we use 14mm x 1.5mm diameter bolts. if no 36 +/- 1 or 2mm is safe, but better to go longer, but not too long.

[oakenfolde]

ok i appreciate ur help..


so if im doing 8mm.. the closest to that is 35mm... which is shorter. will i be safe?

[tribe]

I would go with 38mm. If you change your mind and want to get 10mm spacers you don't have to buy new lugs.

ahh.. i might as well do that then lol
