Wheel spacers
Where can you get hubcentric ones from for an r33gtst? and how much would they likely be?
25 to 35mm not sure yet, needa pair for the rears to bring the wheels back out of the 400r arches i've fitted

You can get them from ultralite wheels or apex performance me thinks
Just get new wheels, with a bigger offset and a huge lip matey!

Ive never tried spacers yet but when i do eventually put the arches on i will be using them. Wouldn't have thought they would put too much strain on the bearings.

You could also try SRB power, they do H&R hub-centric wheel spacers, and can be found at: www.srbpower.com
