Hub Centric Wheel Spacers

UPDATE: NOW SHIPPING!

Since I know some people have been looking for wheel spacers lately, I took it upon myself to do some investigating and some research. I have purchased an old set of Turfburn's hub-centric spacers to compare to.

All of my spacers will be made to fit vehicles with a 67.1mm bore and a 5X114.3 bolt pattern. These will fit: Protege, Mazda3, Mazda6, and possibly other vehicles. They will be made of aluminum and made to order. Here are the details:

3mm (1/8") spacers: $25 a pair

5mm (3/16") spacers: $30 a pair

8mm (5/16") spacers: $40 a pair

I will offer a $5 discount if you order a full set (total of 4) of either 3mm, 5mm, 8mm, or mixed. I can also make these in different sizes, such as 10mm, by request (extra charge). These prices are for the parts shipped.


PAYMENT: For those in the US, please send your payment to the PayPal email address "outrage_display@hotmail.com". Please include your Mazdas247 username and your desired spacers. For those outside of the US, please PM your shipping address and I will get a shipping quote ASAP (I will cover the first $5). Also, this is not my primary email, so if you have any questions and/or do send payment, please PM here so I am notified right away.

Well I only say that because there is no real difference with these and compared to those $8 spacers on ebay. You are still only putting all the weight of the car on the studs, rather than studs and hub. Thats why when you get wheels with a larger hub bore, you should run hubcentric rings so that the weight is better transfered off the studs. It also makes it easier to line up the wheel straight over the hub when tightening the lugs. You should be making these...

Those will not work for anyone with non-oem wheels, tho... If you use hubcentric rings, it's the same end result.

Hey, go ahead and remove me from the list. Sorry, but I feel it would be a waste of $$ to move from my current 7mm spacers to 8mm spacers. I'm likely going to look into some extended studs and 10mm-15mm spacers in the spring when I swap for MZ6 brakes...

Let me know what you need come spring then Thanks for the interest though!

 

[SASK P5]

you can take me off the list too, it pretty sure that i'm am going to be getting a different car in the spring

 

[tonyzoomzoom]

The spacers looks perfect! This will be a good xmas present for the car

 

[Jondar]

put me down for a mixed set (5 and 3)

Well yea, I mean if anyone has aftermarket wheels chances are they need to run hubcentric rings anyways. The spacers are posted extend the actual hub mounting part (67.1mm) outward which is ideal in getting the weight off just the studs. Then you would just place your hubcentric ring over the extended hub on the spacer.(Sorry for not knowing exact terminology) If the spacers aren't going to look like pic I posted, you can take me off the list since there is no point to getting these. If they are going to look like the spacer posted in the first pic, then they will serve the same function as the crappy ebay spacers.

Im gonna be running my bbs rs wheel's with 8mm spacer's.I need these because the hub bore on my wheel's is smaller so no need for the lip for me would just be a waste of time.For people like myself that are running aftermarket wheel's this is great because not many place's make them to fit our 67.1mm hub bore and without that damn lip.

Azuelke great job and thanks for taking the time to even do something like this and offer it to us.

Done.

If all goes well, I should start making these tomorrow and finish them up next week.

 

[hectik1]

Still on the fence. I've had 3mm in the past and want some 5mm all around. Car just looked right!

 

[azuelke]

Do it! You know you want too

 

[Brian_K]

how close are these to being finished?

I REALLY wish I could give a sold date, but things at work have been hell. We are now on overtime until the end of the year (which equates to no free time to do these). I was told I could start working on these 2 weeks ago, got maybe 2 hours worth, and that was it. I have been bugging my boss about them, and s*** will hit the fan if they are not complete by the end of next week.

I hope to see some action by the end of this week. Also, like I said in the main post, once I get a decent amount of these rolling, I will start accepting payments. I do not want to have any issues with people paying and me not being able to deliver.
