Anybody know where I can get hubcentric rings for these type of wheel? I got these wheels from one our club202 members.

the hubring/spacer i gave you should fit fine. did you have a problem with installing them?

I sent you a PM.

Did you get the hub ring/spacers with the wheels when you bought it from aintMe?

They fit fine except I want the wheels in the front to tuck in more. I think it's going to rub using the tires that came with it. I'll probably need rings if I take out those spacers. Don't you think? The rears are fine but might need a thicker spacer.

get your fenders rolled if you havent already. also, if you are planning on changing the tires, go for 225/35s

I had them on these past weekend and I think it will look good more if I drop my car 1/2"-1 inch more. I already have H&Rs.

I think it looks good right now with my Brabus Replicas but with Carlsson Evos, it will look better if my car is lowered more, like L OC's.

are you on #1 pads? i think the only way to get as low as his is to cut the springs. when i had them on, i was on cut 1/2 in the front with #3s and #1s rear uncut. my car still looked kinda high. this is the only pic i have of my car with the carlssons.. =(

Remember there's 2 part# on the H&R springs. The other part# make's your car lowered and all you need is #2 pads all around.
You don't need to cut springs.

REY...it's in your best interest to run 225/35s up front, man. Just spend a little money to buy those, and use your old 235s for when you need new rear tires...

Brandon,

Did L OC use hubcentric rings for his front wheels? I know he used 20mm spacers for the rears. Do you know where he got the spacers?

What is the 2 part #'s for these springs more info on this please as I just got my H&R's. My # is 29749-2 I think this is the correct part # i'm looking at. Whats the difference? Thanks - Matt
