Default hub spacers.

Anyone know where to get some 5mm-10mm hub spacers? I contacted Van from OTG and he said he's still out of stock. He mentioned Evolved Concepts for hub spacers but, their site is kinda messed up right now. I was wondering if I could pick up a set of quality HUB spacers from anywhere else. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yeah. I think I'm going to try Evolved Concepts spacers. My question is: my rims are Konig Supermeshes with a +40 offset, will the 10mm or the 15mm spacers bring the rears out to almost flush with the front? Oh, and has anyone had good feedback and service from the Evolved Concepts guys? Thanks

I think the 10mm would be your best bet; looking through some other threads that seems to be what most folks are picking with a +40 rim.

I was wondering if anyone had to roll their rear fenders when having a +40 offset wheel and 10mm hub spacers?

If you are looking to bring the rears out even with the fronts Def. Hit up Mike (AllianceAutoSports). He has 1/2 inch ones with all the hardware for around 50 bucks shipped. The 10mm ones are not wide enough and the 15mms are too wide. The 1/2 inch ones are perfect and they come coated in black oxide.

I just actually sent the paypal payment for the 1/2 spacers. Can't wait for them to get here to complete the look! My wheels look good now but, the rears will look great with the spacers.

You will love them. It's funny how such a small spacer does so much toward the look of the rear wheels.

Everyone kept telling me they don't see the big difference between the fronts and the rears and I told them they are crazy! Maybe I am just realllly particular about my car but, I see the difference.

To regular people they don't get it. Only other xB owners can spot the problem from 20 ft. away.

I am doing Mike's 3/4 inch for the rear and I have 1/4 inch wheel spacers for the front..... but my wheels are a +43 offset
so that would be like a +37 in the front and +23 for the rear

I still don't understand the whole 10mm spacer thing. They are not wide enough to even the rears with the front.
Plus they are more ezpensive than the AllianMotorSports 1/2" ones. You can get them for under 50 shipped.

To be even you need 12.5MM spacers but no one sells those it's either 10MM or 15MM. So you can just be slightly under or slightly over. I went with 10 on mine to prevent any possible rubbing issues
