Spacers

Question

I'm not quite sure about all of this, but it's got me wondering if I have a safe setup. I have 18" S8 alloys with 10mm spacers on standard S2 hubs. Should I really have these hubcentic things instead? Is it easy to lock them? I have a McGard set which is longer and the correct seat for the setup I have at the moment. I can try to find the part number if any one wants it? I do need some longer normal bolts though, as they currently barely reach the hub. Now that trackstore doesn't trade anymore, does any one have any ideas where I could get some? Bry thought demontreaks might sell them.

Anything over about 5mm and you should have hubcentric spacers otherwise your wheel isn't locating on anything.
I think Demon Tweeks do sell longer bolts etc

This guy here on ebay is good. Radius seat, taper seat in differing length thread and decent prices, fast delivery.

i`ve read that if you can get 8 full revolutions on the stud/nut to hand tight you should be ok

And what model Audi did you use for the locking nuts?

Porsche!
For the normal and locking nuts

Porsche!

Which porsche mate? Asking because porsche tend too use 1.25 thread over 1.5 thread on most of their car range.

If you have 15mm spacers then you will need 65mm length studs, i bought 80mm studs and MartinJS kindly cut them down for me

I've just bought the same set up. 80mm with locking nuts so I'll cut them down a little.

Where from Mark?
Jamo, I just help myself when I get the calipers, I have two sets of alloy nuts for the stud conversion. Not sure what they are off as they are all in a container on the side.
