Do our cars need custom spacers for the front?? :confused:

This is the style of spacer I tried putting on the front hub. It would not sit all the way because the hubcentric area was not large enough...

Anyone run into this issue? Would spacers like this design alleviate the problem?

I was thinking...

Me and jnolte both have C32 brakes (I believe he does). Would that make a difference?

H&R's website has separate front and rear spacers for the W203 model...hmm...

A member on mymbonline had similar issues with W210.. had to have the spacers machined where it sits on the front hub.

Hey Brandon..

H&R ones work fine for me.. I have C32 brakes also.

Hey Bro!

I tried throwing my rear 15mm H&R spacers on the front and it wouldn't fit :confused:

If you send me the spacers I will machine them for you. Just pay the shipping both directions.

Wow Jeff, thank you for the VERY kind offer, but I just purchased another set of spacers. If these new ones do not work for whatever reason I will be getting in touch with you. Thank you again.
