Wheel Spacers

I was considering putting the 15mm on my rears. Has anyone used EZaccessory spacers? I am looking for the ones that use original studs and have another set of studs on them. I see 928motorsports has some.

to figure out what size to get first you need to have the wheels /tires fitted that your going to run then measure from the outside tire edge to the inner lip of the outside fender measure both sides one may be closer to the edge than the other.
use the smaller number subtract 5MM from this number then get spacers that are as close to this number as possible EG 24MM left 28 mm right
24-5 = 19.
OR you can try to pull the smaller fender out gently with leather gloved hands pull with both hands together along the lower edge of the fender then remeasure.
the fender will come out some,
dont apply too much pressure so you dont damage the bodywork.

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Stan

Will do, and check it all out before I buy any. I think it would make the car look nice. I have stock rims and tire size.

Thanks again, Rudy

the reason the rear wheels on the 928 look sucked in is because they were made to facilitate the use of tire chains for winter driving,
if the tires were close to the fenders then they chains would damage the fender lips
