Well you can play with all you want, the email exchange is clear proof. Your set could very well be for the gt350 and thats how they set it up, but clearly the email doesn't lie.
I am not questioning you, not sure why you keep jumping to that conclusion?
Because no matter what I point out you think the outcome is going to be different for you, or that what I am saying is skewed. At the same time from his/their own words its been said I got the wrong spacer, so yes I am jumping to the fact your going to make yours work no matter what cause I did something wrong, or you think its all made up.
Unfortunately no. I think I’ll post on Fakebook to find out and ask if anyone wants to help.
And there you go again! Unless you have mental issues Jamie explain what that bold sentence means? That I dont know how to use a spacer. What am I trying to put the spacer backwards on the hub? Please ENLIGHTEN me where does the spacer go or would you like me to show you where it really should go? Please master show us the proper way the spacer goes, if it doesnt go on the HUB then where does it go? If Tyler says I received the WRONG Spacer, your going to tell me the one that MADE the spacer is wrong too or what he lied to me?
Well I kept my '16 CS which was also 18" and was going to try and see if the spacer would have worked (The OEM tire is wider as you can see in the above picture), but no chance of that now. There is another company which I am going to be calling tomorrow, Automotive Authority, and see where they are at. I was waiting on them which was making a spare for the GT500, but have to see what there timeframe is and how they are going about it. Guess for now just have to be careful and live with not having one. if I find anything out I'll let you know.
no dog in this fight...but I think what @Jmeo is trying to say, is the lug nuts USUALLY are not supposed to go on the spacer, only on the wheel.
I'm going to explain this one last time and in steps:no dog in this fight...but I think what @Jmeo is trying to say, is the lug nuts USUALLY are not supposed to go on the spacer, only on the wheel.
all the spacers I have ever used (vr4s, Jeep’s, and super duty’s) get regular old nuts/lock washers on the spacer, with the lugnuts going on the wheel.
the only caveat being...unless this particular spacer is a (ahem) cheaper version, not hub centric and needs the centering ability?
...that is all, don’t shoot the messenger
Ok, you want answers? You previously said you were done, and I was very happy about that. Ok.
1: They sent me the wrong spacer (AS PER TYLER)Ok, you want answers? You previously said you were done, and I was very happy about that. Ok.
Why do I think you have no clue how to use a spacer? Well, one would only have to read every post you wrote. But to make it easy for you
You can’t seem to understand the OEM lug nuts do NOT get used to mount the spacer. period, end of story. In some cases, the OEM lug nuts may be used to mount the spare to the spacer, but only if the spacer has the OEM size wheel studs pressed into them. These do not which is why they came with specific lug nuts to secure the wheel to the spacer.
I very nicely suggested the possibility that the lug nuts that are needed could have fallen out of the package during shipping to you (mine almost did).
Oh, would you look at that. My original picture posted shows both the lug nuts on the spacer (for mounting the wheel to the spacer), AND the required lug nuts to mount the spacer to the hub.
It was obvious to me and most of us I’m sure what the problem was from the get go. You did not have the required lug nuts. You couldn’t seem to figure that out, hence the not knowing how to use a spacer comment.
Its not my way of doing it, it’s the only way. Someone even posted a link to the missing lug nuts you needed, but all you wanted to do was complain that they were more money than I said they cost. Well they are from that place, but are cheaper most everywhere in else. I will say the ones linked are a better quality, and are worth the lousy $28.
I asked if you held the tire up to the spacer while it was sitting on the wheel studs only to ask if the wheel cleared the caliper. Why? Because this is what we all want to know. I did not ask a tough question.It was a yes or no answer. I did not expect you to drive to the quickly mart and get a donut.
Not one time did I suggest the spacer is definitely the right one. I only meant it IS possible the spacer would work, period. Knock off the crap about me not hearing what you said Tyler said. Trust me, we all saw what you wrote.
While we are at it. I asked for the name and number of who you spoke to so I could speak to the same person you did. No I’ll intentions, period. I figured I could jar his memory when I mentioned you.
You obviously have a hair across your ass for some reason, or you can not interpret plain English (I sometimes have this problem). I honestly do not care what you do, or don’t do. I will check for fitment before I post gibberish and immediately go through the hassle to package it all up and ship back.
It’s very possible this will not fit, I’m not trying to say otherwise. I will find out for myself, and share for the people who are still interested.
Take care Mike.
