    Does anyone know if you can get 10mm bolt on hub centric spacers? I've only been able to find 15mm or above..... Any 10mm bolt ons out there?

    Issue with less than 15mm spacers is the nut pokes out from the recess.

    Anti 14.7 x 14.7 = 44.1

    Even with 15mm they do, like my fronts. Not an issue if your aftermarket wheels are recessed on the back face.

    Yeah like Anti said, my rims are recessed at the back. So accommodating the studs and nuts won't be an issue. Just can't find bloody 10mm bolt on spacers... I might just have to go 15mm.

    Ebay USA has some - was looking for the same on Saturday
    Enter Nissan 10mm spacers because there is over 2000 nissan spacers
    You may want to get longer studs and 1 company said they can do centric but not under 6mm - so 10mm is OK - would need to confirm
    Black anodised items in the add from memory
    Let me know if you do get some - can double the order and halve the freight
    Cheers

    They dont need to be bolt on. In fact I have never seen 10mm bolt on's.

    As long as the have hub centres machined in they will work fine even if they use the studs to hold them in place.

    Street Machine did an article on wheel spacers and adapters in the Dec 2006 issue pg 127. They reported that unless factory fitted, wheel spacers and adapters are illegal Australia wide.

    In states that have adopted the NCOP you will find wheel spacers and adapters can not be used.

    See page 20.

    I managed to get a set made in Latvia of all places for my Volvo V70 T5. They were cheaper than anyone I could find in SW Sydney and the company will custom make anything you want.
    Company is PDV Ltd and they sell on Ebay. Here is a link http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/pdv_ltd/m.html

    Good Luck!

    They are not bolt on....

    The ones you have showed are not bolt on spacers. They are hub centric slip on spacers. Essentially, they slip over your existing studs. You would need to replace your existing studs with longer ones to use that spacer..

    The ones I am after actually bolt onto your existing studs. They then have their own studs built into the spacer....

    Wheel adapters (bolt on with their own studs) are not legal with the exception of factory fitted wheel adapters (for example Porsche).
