Offset Alteration

[dpsubaru]

Have a number of sets of alloys that fit the PCD of the Scooby (114.3) but not the offset. The Scooby is 52 on the standard alloys whereas the aftermarket wheels i in my garage (in sets of 4) tend to range between 20 and 35.

Does anyone use spacers? and how safe are spacers that are only 20-30mm thick? - do you just use longer bolts on them or have separate bolts for the spacer to the hub and the wheel to the spacer?

As long as you use hubcentric spacers that bolt onto the original hub, you should be fine.

i think when your getting to that thickness do you not normally use seperate bolts between the alloy and spacer then flush ones for the spacer to the hub
