New Rims Are On, Couple Of Wee Questions...

[JohnnyW]

Put my new rims onto the 2, they are Lexus IS300's.....

Two quick questions, as you can see in the pic the back wheels sit in a bit, what size of spacer would be best suited for this problem 5mm or 10mm?

Also can someone recommend a good set of wheel locking nuts for the 2.

Cheers guys

Johnny

Big Spacers are best to avoid, I would not like to say which would be best to bring the wheels out to the arches.

Big spacers cause strain on your wheel Bearings, so be carefull

Any wheel / Tyre supplier will sell locking wheel nuts !

yes mate avoid wheel spacers if you can, whats the offset of them then, would have thought theyd be the same?

The geezer who sold my wheels said McGard are the best lock in nuts you can get. "They have to nick your car to get your wheels!".

Also, he wasn't up-selling as he chucked em in for free in the end! I did spend £770!!!! afterall.

I think he said they are £30 at retail. Good investment though if ins comp. wont insure your mods (like mine).

They look quality nuts as well. HTH
