wheel spacers Options

[EKAn]

here's a shot of my wheels with a wheel adaptor. Its kind of hard to specify what size would fit best. Do you want them on your stock wheels? or you wanna get after market wheels? edit: also, what offset? i think offset is the biggest factor.

I drove my car to a shop, told them i needed adaptors (the rims were 5x114.3) which serve as spacers, and told them to make the wheels flush with the fender.

See if they have a shop around you where they could do this for you. i pad around $250 for all 4.

what are you lowered on?

Id say the first one. Just make sure the bore is 56.1 or 56.X i forgot what it was, just celica sized bore and you should be right.

[njccmd2002]

they are celica specific.

sorry I didn't see this before,

from those links posted, the second one is the better option.

here is why, on the first link, that setup has lug nuts that will be hidden behind the wheel once they are installed, if one ( or more ) is to come loose you would most likely notice it when is too late, don't get me wrong, they are safe, and people use them with sucess, but that type of setup is more suited for bolt pattent conversions, like going from 5 x 100 to 5 x 114.5 or something like that, when you are keeping the same bolt pattern longer studs are safer since you have less moving parts, keeping a closer to stock setup with only 5 nuts to worry about.

you also got PM'ed
