FS 25MM Hubcentric spacers x4
 
I have my spacers up for sale. My new wheels came in so I won't be needing these anymore. These are hubcentric and made for the RX8. All of the studs are in good condition and ready to be bolted on. I bought these for almost $200 and I am asking for 160 shipped with paypal fees included.

Here are the pics:

I want spacers just dont know how they go on. Are they direct bolt on or do you have to take other brake parts off of the car to put them on? Do you have a pic of how they are on the car with and without the wheel on?

You literally slip them over the studs that your wheels are on now. The nuts that he has on the studs in the pictures will hold the spacer to your car's studs. The wheel goes onto the spacer's studs and is held on by your lug nuts. Car's hub > spacer > wheel It takes almost no time to install these spacers once your wheels are off.

Thanks j8635621 :)

Nothing needs to be taken off...only the wheels. Once the wheels are off you would just slip it into the 5 stud holes. Secure them down with the provided nuts, then slip on your wheels onto the studs on the spacers. From then just put back on your lug nuts then you are done :)

Nope I got these brand new. I agree...with OEM wheels or aftermarket :)

Bump for a good price and a good dude.

You just bolt them, torque them the same as you would a wheel, put your wheel on, and torque the lugs on the wheels. On these spacers the stock studs will only stick through slightly just about every wheel I have ever seen will allow for the extra but that sticks through.

This is how factory wheels look with 25mm spacers.

gimme a couple days. i might take these off your hands.

BJP 09-30-2010 08:59 PM

these are sweet

13sampsRx8 09-30-2010 10:09 PM

thanks j8635621, I would use these on the stock wheels.. Sifu would these wear out the bearings or arms on the car or anything like that?

dlum125 09-30-2010 11:39 PM

would this look good on stock height???

2tone 10-01-2010 08:36 AM

^they would look good at any height simply b/c they push your wheels out closer to the edge line of the car. go look at your car, then look at 9k's picture..........they make a huge difference.

someone buy them already, geez

I did a lot of research because of the shit talking about spacers and I found zero negative affects of spacers on track and off. The only negative affect could be from the actual spacers failing but I do not believe that will happen with any of the machined spacers using grade 8 hardware like these. I could not find a single case of spacers failing though and a lot of the vintage racers use spacers. If you are too low you will get some camber wear though but that can be fixed easily.
