Spacers

[TurboNate]

I'm looking to get a more aggressive stance from the wheels and want it to be flush with the fenders. Anyone know what size spacers I will need for front and back?

This is the results I'm looking for

Thanks

What size rims ? And did it come with the car? Are u planning to lower it?

^ All of those questions need to be answered first. If you're on 17s at stock height I wouldn't bother, the size of spacer you'd need would be ridiculous and it wouldn't look significantly better. If you have OE 18s or 19s with a drop or sport suspension, about 12mm spacers would work.

I'm on both stock height and 17's lol, but I'm planning on getting new wheels soon, I so guess I'll just wait till then

17s have the same width and offset like the oe 18s. ECS tuning has a oe 18 inch flush kit that should work for 17s

Not quite, and not worth the money IMO. Just buy a set of lower offset 17s and keep the tires if you want a better look cheaply.

There are two different sets of 17s. Mine came with a 245 wide tire. Then it would not work if he has the smaller version.

spacers with any type of 17" looks really stupid. that's just my opinion.
I'd try and find a set of oem 18s or 19s if you want a clean oem feel and look. otherwise AG,VMR, etc all make affordable options and b8 specs

[TurboNate]

I really like the pen s line 19's. But it's hard to find for a good price

If you're running 17 or 18" OEM get 15/20 mm spacers front/rear

Sorry for reusing this thread... same question though, different setup... I was about to order 12mm spacers all around for my car. It's on 19" OEM (S-Line) wheels and sport suspension. But I'm wondering if 15 mm wouldn't be better for the rear. Any insight?

On my B7 I was running 10mm spacers at the front and 15mm at the back with 18X8 et45 wheels, and it was perfect.

If you follow the instructions to properly measure you can get the exact size you will need, instead of guessing. I am running 12.5mm on the rears and nothing on the fronts of my "19 rotor wheels on sport suspension. I could get away with about 5mm on the fronts but I personally didn't like the look of the tires poking out from the fenders.

Ok thanks. I guess I'll wait and put the 19" on and measure correctly. I currently have my car on aftermarket 17" wheels and winter tires... Still a couple of weeks before we can safely put summer tires on unfortunately.

You mind posting pics? And is there a big quality difference between replica and oem?

depends what your definition of quality is. finish of paint itself yes there is a huge difference

Tons of people on here run them, my 18s sourced from eBay balanced out perfectly and aren't any heavier than then OE 18s which came on my car. The paint quality is also mint. 19x8.5 or 18x8.5 ET35 (which these are) is basically the ideal fitment for these cars.

Thanks. Looks good to me but maybe a bit aggressive for what I'm looking for for my own car. All around et33-35-ish looks ideal, that's what I was aiming for with 12mm spacers, assuming OEM 19" are et45....

Yea totally understand. With stock tires it's def looking more aggressive then flush. Next set of tires and when I get c/o's will def change the appearance

ECS has them (Alzors) on back order. I ordered these from the eBay listing below... They all are manufactured in the same place. Great service, good price, delivered in like 2 days. Very happy with them.

I didn't say they wouldn't balance out or that the finish was crap. Its just not OEM and OEM fit and finish will always be better. period. Nothing wrong with running reps.

Yeah man not saying you were completely wrong, anyone should absolutely know that YMMV with anything that isn't name-brand. Just saying that my experience with this vendor and wheel has been good.

Someone knows the width and offset of the 19" oem wheels, specifically these ones:



I'm thinking 19X8.5 et45 but not absolutely sure...

Thanks. I'll try to get the spacers from somewhere else though. ECS doesn't want Canadians' business with their ridiculous shipping fees.

If your vehicle has 8inch wide ET47 wheels those pics are what your vehicle would look like.

Any issues with balancing problems after the spacers are installed?
