Wheel spacers

[Ringmeister]

I've got 18x8.5 wheels with 35mm offset all around, what is the correct thickness wheel spacer for this application? (Planning on lowering approx 1 inch in future).

Thanks and thanks Gerry for getting the forum back on track.

Assuming the spoke design clears the front calipers, you can run those wheels as is. The outer edge will extend 5mm closer to the fender than stock. If you want a slightly more aggressive look, a 5mm spacer can be used. If you want to go more aggressive, you can use a 15mm hub-centric spacer which will move the outer edge 20mm closer to the fender. This *should* still clear without rubbing with a 245/40 tire but it may be close.

Thanks, I was thinking that 15mm would clear, I think I will try it.

I have the Monoblocks 8.5 - 17 with 30 offset without spacers
with tires 245/45-17

Ringmeister what kind of wheels are you using?

I have a set of mono VI with the same specs as you stated. I have not gotten a chance to mount them yet.

Since you are in the same scenario I am in, Would you let me know how things worked out for you.
