Spacers

[James-Hilton]

Anyone got any pictures of their 133's lowered and fitted with spacers? Was thinking of getting these?

IMO, I wouldn't put spacers on an RS.. especially when you're going to lower it too.

I already have it lowered 35mm all round on Weitec coilovers. Just fancy it being a bit wider.

Wouldn't it rub loads with spacers on as well?

 

[James-Hilton]

That's what I was worried about. I had it originally lowered 45mm all round but I had it taken up to 30mm all round yesterday. It was rubbing on the right hand arch on full wheel lock or both front arches if I took passengers. Now that it's at 30mm it has stopped rubbing.

Well yes, thats what I was reffering to.

Mine is barely not rubbing.

I have 17" OZ, ET 37 with 195/40/17 tyres on. I used to have 205's but they were constantly rubbing so if you're on RS cup wheels, already lowered on Weitec I wouldn't recommend of using spacers. Unless you go for smaller wheels.

But if you take 16 or 15 inch wheels you can go wider on your wheel choice instead of using spacers.

I'm speaking out of experience from with my Wind though but the wheelarches can't be that different. When my wheels are at full lock I can't even get my pinky finger between the tyre and the wheelarch.
