Spacers on the other hand - yeah, plastic would be bad. Spacers are virtually illegal here - you can use them but you then have to have the vehicle re-certified by a qualified engineer - which costs huge $. Many folk do run them but with no certification (which is illegal and is an instant fail on the annual safety checks we have).

I believe he is referring to the hub rings, not spacers. Also, make sure whoever is bolting on the wheel torques them preloaded(not completely on ground.) Basically lowering the vehicle til enough weight to torque without spinning the wheel/tire assembly.
Ninja edit, someone beat me to it. |

I was looking up the proper name for the rings since spacer does usually mean the thick metal ring that moves the wheel away from centerline.

Here is the latest poor financial decision I've made. Bought 3 of the OE 420L roof boxes from the dealer today. The parts dept director hated having them around and made me a deal I could not refuse. In my defense, I asked the wife about buying one and SHE said to buy all 3. So I obliged. One will go on the E61 wagon, Mouse said he wanted one, and the other will be painted imola red/black to go onto the E53.

But I don't have anymore space ( too much car parts and other doodads) in the garage if not using it. Eagerly awaiting on your Imola with the roof box mounted with matching paint on it! |
