$49.95 at Maximum Motorsports.

I'm sure they can be had cheaper at other places. It looks like the 1/4" spacer is just a basic thin disc, so there probably isn't much difference between brands.

I know Pep Boys has them. Had two different sizes the last time I bought a set. Had both 5/16" and 1/4" thick I think. Were cheap, like $9.95 a set....

Make sure you get some new studs, or your wheel will pop off, probably when you have a woman in the car with you

I run 1/4" HR spacers with my 18s...Per HR, with the stock studs check for a minimum of 6-8 threads of engagement...if you dont have that much then longer studs are needed....my 1/4" made that no problem....

as rio5.0 stated check for proper thread length i believe anything over 1/4 in.(.25) requires longer wheel studs. if you have a local wheel shop call them they usually stock this item (universal spacers). the local shop here does. and talk to him about install(very important) he will let you know proper specs on install. the local dealer here would not install certain sizes without new wheel studs also they make 2 different types one that slides onto studs and one that bolts to wheel and bolts seperately to studs click on link below for example. this info is very important as S&B said you don't one to pop off.

They have to be crapola for that price. I wouldnt buy those with YOUR money.

You'll be fine with the 1/4", but check anyways.

Those baers seem really nice. The maximummotorsports ones are a bit pricey and they don't have 3/4".


Has anyone had problems with hitting the lip on the fender?? At one point I wanted to cut or roll mine. I'm not sure how big I can go without doing so.
