Alignment / wheel spacers
I have just removed 1/4" front and 1" rear spacers/adapters on my '87 Carrera. Does this have any impact on alignment? I upgraded from 16/6/7 Fuchs to 16/7/8s.
I thought it would not affect it, but another Pelican asked me about it and I really don't know. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance, -Chris ![]()

Simply removing the spacers won't affect your alignment.

Very nice
![]() They are perfectly tucked under the fender now. I cut into them pretty good on the run though - hope they are still OK. Hey, let me know when you will be around one night after work this week, I'll show you the parts that I got at the lake. -Chris

Chris,
Do you want to sell the 1/4" spacers? I am fine tuning the spacing of my wheels. I live in Southern California. Also, no rush is necessary. A two weeks would be just great. Thanks, Doug

Hey Doug,
I will be selling all 4 of these (2 front 2 rear), but another Pelican has first crack at them. PM me your email with spacers in the title and I will keep you in the loop. I should know this week sometime. -Chris
