20mm spacers fitted

(20-06-2013 06:46pm)speary Wrote:  Just noticed in your pics that the original bolts stand proud of the spacer face. Have you checked that the back face of the wheel is flush to the face of the spacer and is not pressing in the protruding bolts. If they are the pressure when you tightened the new bolts could cause fracturing of your wheels

Good point!.
On the OEM wheels, between the bolt holes there is a concave groove on the wheel hub which allows this for perfect fitting..

It is also on A/M wheels as well.

RE: 20mm spacers fitted

Thanks for your concern. I did check this multiple times before fitting. For the OEM wheels 20mm is the minimum spacer width you need. Otherwise you would have to shorten the OEM studs for clearance. It's tight with 20mm. 25 would give you some more clearance.

Hallo Jos,

Dat zou kunnen bij de miniclub hoor! Verder hebben we al eerder contact gehad over de evoque. We moeten nog steeds een keer afspreken we wonen toch in de buurt bij elkaar.

Can be bought via eBay for about 90€ excl shipping per axle

Hello my friend,

Wonder to know what size of wheels and tires are you using with the 20mm spacers?

I have a Dynamic with 20' wheels... Would this spacers look good?

Thanks

RE: 20mm spacers fitted

Think this will be for me when I put the 20" back on in April after the winter.

I had Merc ML a few years back and went for upgraded OE wheels, which made the back wheels 9"wide instead of 8". It was very subtle but quite a few people commented they thought mine looked differant but couldn't put their finger on it. Think your mod falls into this category, especially the fact that the rear wheels are now flush with the wheel arch.

RE: 20mm spacers fitted

I'm running 20" oem wheels style 8 right now. Have run them with the 20" dynamic rims.
As said before, the edges of the wheels are flush with the wheel arches. Subtle but worth it.
