    Wheel Spacer Problem

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Got my Ichiba 10mm wheel spacers and tried to install them with my RS4 reps. The spacer wont fit all the way into the opening of the wheel.... They fit perfect into the opening of my stock wheels, but wont fit into the RS4 reps? Is there anything I cn do to them to make it work?

    chamfer is the angle cut on the end that slides into the wheel or angle cut on drilled holes

    You might need to get some sandpaper and sand down the paint/powdercoat on the RS4's. It might be on there a little thick.

    Then you need a spacer with a different chamfer. You may want to just look at a set of H&R Spacers. MTM & Eibach also sell spacers. If need be you can get a set custom machined.
