Getting Started

[adamt]

Hello all.

As you can see I'm new on here.

I was wondering if any of you could please point me in the direction of a company, website, etc that can supply me with 4 billet alloy wheel spacers for a set of early Fuch.

All the best, Ad

Start with Weidmans Wheels, he's in Orrovill Calif. He didn't invent the wheel, but he knows the guy who did He's also a member of this site.

Adam,

Welcome to Early S.

I' think you'll find the H&R spacers to be the best, and they're widely available. ( yes, the same people who make the OEM & aftermarket coil springs). They are German-made, aircraft grade alum., precisely manufactured and available in a multitude of metric width. Don't forget to install the appropriate lenght studs ( if needed) after you figure out the thickness of the spacers you plan on installing.

Good Luck

Thanks Ed.

I forgot to mention that I'm in the UK, but I will give him a call as I have a few friends in Santa Monica who could send them over for me.

Thanks for the welcome John. Yep, need to decide on the right thickness before I commit to stud length. I'm gonna need a spacer of around 13mm but I reckon I might be able machine a few mm off. Once all my clearance issues are sorted I will be able to finalise my stud length.

I'll see if I can track down a UK outlet for H&R.

Again, thanks to you both,

Adam.
