which spacers for 17X9 +35

which spacers for 17X9 +35? I know nothing about this or what kind I will need.

Do they make hubcentric spacers for the RPF1 on the Evo or just the regular kind?

How thick is the correct size? do you do front and back? Do you get the ones with the lugs built in or no?

Thanks.

You don't need spacers for that offset.

minimum spacers required for 17x9 or 17x9.5 rpf1's is 18mm. A lot of people buy the kics 20mm spacers or get them custom made by Robispec or Wheeladapters.com. U need hubcentric rings so that the weight of the wheel is on the hub not the studs.

if u interested in 17x9.5 wheels with the correct wheel spacers, check out my for sale thread.

The adapters are made by the suspension guru himself, Robispec. The wheel adapters are spacers, lugs, and hubcentric rings all in one package. They're 20mm.

I have 17x9 +35mm with 255/40/17z and have 0 issues. I have on coilovers so dont know if it would hit the spring cup on a standard shock.

I just checked the numbers and my 17x10 with a +23 offset stick in slightly more towards the suspension than this setup would. So I see no problems, I have stock struts and have no clearances issues.

Spacers are optional for 17x9 +35 wheels.

should also depend on the rim design as some spoke designs may touch calipers even though they are the same size n offset of other wheels that fit


for instance

18 x 9.5 +22 te37s fit perfectly without spacers

and as i just found out

18 x 9.5 +22 ce28ns need 10mm spacers on the front.
