Wheel Spacer size and fitment help!

[GreenGuardian]

Questions for ya'll?

I have a 2015 GT Premium with aftermarket rims and tires, Niche GT5's with 275/35/20's squared, lowered on BMR SP80's. They seem to be a little recessed into the wheel well and I'd like to bring them out. What size hubcentric spacer do yall think I might need, 20mm or 25mm, maybe smaller, possible two different sizes for front and back?

Man, the offset for the aftermarket setup is off :(

Go with 20mms? I know with the stock wheels, 25mm looks good!

 

[robertwsimpson]

looks fine to me!

depends on what look you want. if anything I'd say maybe a 10mm front and rear? you probably wouldn't even need extended studs if you went small enough.

 

[GreenGuardian]

Do you think 10mm would be enough for the rears?

 

[robertwsimpson]

I can't tell from your photos. 10mm spacers without studs would be cheap enough to try and see how it looks. Get a pair and try them on the rear and see what it looks like. If you think you need more, put the 10s on the front and get 15mm ones. at that point, you might need longer wheel studs.

First before you do anything.

Tell us what size it is ? this will for instance tell me what offset it was ( they dont make these anymore).

From there I can recommend a proper size Adapter not a spacer brotha, spacer doesnt have studs in it ( max 5 mm on factory hub studs) anything more like a 15-25 mm needs to have studs and is called a adapter.

let me know the size and Ill help recommend a size adapter for you.

but how small can you go before you have to grind down the OE wheel studs? Not sure what the back of these wheels look like. If it's down to that, I'd be inclined to do longer studs and spacers. What do you think?

Thats the thing the OP needs to pull a wheel off, check the back see how much pocketing there is ( maybe post a picture with a measurement with it).

From there He measures his factory stud length from the mounting hub the end.

Based on the wheel backpad and the these measurements we can calculate what the proper adapter is needed.

I prefer to not grind if necessary or unless the OP is ok with that.


if he has the 20x10 Et 40 all around for the GT5 then that means he can go for instance 5 mm spacer no adapter needed. Like how a lot of the setups I do are a 20x10 ET 35 all around

Or aggressive

ET 20 all around ( 20 mm adapter needed)

I will try and get the measurements this weekend, might be a little difficult holiday weekend and all. I do appreciate all of the help thus far though, thanks guys.

Happy Thanksgiving

Spacer

What do yall think about these? Can I get away with just trying these out to see how it will look before I make any more decisions or should I just go ahead and pull the wheel off and snap a photo and post it first?

Yes you can

Changed to these hubcentric spacers instead of the above, these are a little thinner though.
