You'd have to look online, I just bought some 8mm off a parts store and they told me noone would carry any bigger because it's a liability and "illegal" .
Did you ever get to buy any? |
@albert> Do you have a pic of these installed? Is there a link you could give me or just let me know where you got them from, 8mm sounds like it would look pretty nice Thanks :)

I got them at a part store, they are made by cp automotive, and the exact size is 5/16 alluminum .
Theyr a universal part so they are not hubcentric, that's why i'm hasitant about intalling them, they were 14 buck for a pair. I will post pictures tho. |
isnt 20mm huge? i think thatd stick out a ton
|
2CM? About the same as two finger nails side by side. Lets say, >.........<
I think that would be a little on the big side. If I were to do with any, it would probably be about 5-7MM. Not anything that others would notice, just somthing I would notice. Maybe others that are also Monte Carlo enthusiasts would notice. Ive never been one to like the wider than stock wheel base. I dont see anything wrong with having 20MM (2CM) spacers though, if thats what you like? |

So I bought some 5/16 (8mm aprox) spacers, and i got a hold of some steel 5 lug spacers 1/8th (3mm aprx) off the the junk yard.
With out any spacers the lug nuts after being torqued is flush with the lug bolt. after installing the 8mm spacer i noticed that it didn't turn as many threads as original 8 1/2 turns torqued. with the spacer the lug nut would only turn 3 1/4 turn, risky. So i try out the 3mm steel spacer and the lugnut turned 5 1/2 turns. I decided that this was safer than my first attemps with the 8mm spacer. I noticed the lug bolt, i think are the originals, dont have the treads to the full length of the bolt they stop at about a quarter of and inch before. I may use the 8mm spacers if i can get a hold of longer and reinforced lug bolts. but 20mm or 25mm spacers would look really nice i think, more flush |
think you could take a pic from the front more and on the side. Get a better "overall" pic of it?? Thanks
