Before purchasing our products, please be aware of the following information
SIZING & FITMENT
All of our spacers are custom made to order, and we’re more than happy to tailor them to your specific requirements. However, as we are a manufacturer only and not a licensed mechanic, we can only offer limited advice and unfortunately cannot 100% guarantee fitment as there a multiple factors to be considered when deciding on spacers
If you’re unsure of your exact requirements, we strongly recommend consulting with a licensed mechanic or professional fitter. They will be able to inspect your setup and advise on the exact specifications required for your desired fitment, as well as confirm compatibility and feasibility
It is your responsibility to supply us with accurate information of your requirements (e.g. PCD, bore size, thread size, thickness etc.) and to verify that the specifications you have ordered are correct for your vehicle. If you are unsure of your vehicles specifications, this website is a useful resource: https://www.wheel-size.com/
If you are using aftermarket hubs or rims, we have no way of verifying the design or bore sizes for these. For this you will need to contact the manufacturer/vendor of the hub/rims, or consult a mechanic or professional fitter to get measurements taken if you are unsure how to do this yourself
Please note that custom made items are non-refundable, specifications cannot be changed after order begins processing, and all aftermarket components are installed and used at buyers own risk. We are not responsible for any damages caused by installation or improper use of the product. Professional installation is strongly recommended!
HUB PROTRUSION
Most vehicles' axle hubs have a central protruding part that serves a number of purposes, one of which is helping the rims locate centrally onto the hub. The design and height of this central protrusion varies significantly from vehicle to vehicle, make to make, model to model, year to year, and can be a source of fitment issues particularly in regards to hub centric spacers (i.e. ones with a hub centric lip)
If you are ordering a spacer with a hub centric lip the following information is very important! In cases where the wheel centre bore is <4mm greater than the car centre bore, there is a step on the inside bore of the spacer necessary to support the hub centric lip. So that the spacer can sit flush on the hub, your vehicle's hub protrusion must not exceed the bore depth, so PLEASE CHECK YOUR HUB PROTRUSION BEFORE PURCHASING! Please note that we are not able to determine your hub protrusion for you; you must remove a wheel and measure the hub. Please see the picture below for an example of how to measure this. If you do not feel comfortable doing this yourself, we recommend speaking to a mechanic
Example of Hub Protrusion (yours may look significantly different from this diagram):

If you place an order and do not mention the hub protrusion to us, we will assume you have checked it and found it to be under the limit. If you do not check and find afterwards that your hub protrusion is too high for the spacers, the buyer will bear the cost of either fixing or replacing the spacers!
To determine how this may affect you, please use the following guide for reference. The bore depth varies according to thickness AND the difference between the wheel centre bore (WCB) and car centre bore (CCB) sizes
| Spacer Thickness | Bore Depth |
| 10mm | 8mm |
| 12mm | 10mm |
| 15mm | 12mm |
| 18mm | 15mm |
| 20mm | 15mm |
| 25mm | 20mm |
| 30mm | 25mm |
| 35mm | 30mm |
| 40mm | 35mm |
| 50mm | 45mm |
If WCB - CCB ≥ 4mm the internal spacer bore is machined the entire way through without an internal supporting step required. In such cases, hub protrusion should not prevent the spacers sitting flush
In certain cases, it may be possible to increase the bore depth but further factors apply in determining that so please contact us for more information. If it is possible to do so, an additional cost (determined on a case by case basis) may be required to produce such spacers
STUD / BOLT PROTRUSION
Particularly with thinner bolt-on spacers (25mm and below), you may find that your OEM studs / bolts protrude past the surface of the spacer. If the rims you are fitting do not have recesses built into that to allow for this protrusion you will not be able mount your rims over the spacers. In the case of studs, they may need to be trimmed shorter or replaced with studs of a shorter length. Please consult a mechanic before deciding to trim wheel studs as it may not always be safe to do so
In the case of bolts, often the head may be too tall and cause the same problem. In such cases, you can additionally purchase low-profile bolts to use instead if required
THREAD ENGAGEMENT
Nuts and bolts always need a sufficient amount of thread engagement (in others a minimum number of turns) in order to be consider securely in place. This is something that is best worked out with a mechanic as quite complex calculations are involved based on a variety of factors (e.g. material of studs and nuts, grade of material, length etc.) so we are not able to advise you on this
With regard to cars that use lug bolts as fasteners, if you are getting slip-on spacers you will usually need to get longer threaded bolts to ensure the minimum amount of thread engagement is met. For spacers of 8mm or below, the reduced thread engagement is usually not that significant however this is a guide only so please consult a mechanic to be certain. For spacers 10mm and over it is usually recommended to get longer bolts. The thread length of the new bolts will need to be that of the OEM bolts plus the spacer thickness. For example, if your OEM bolts have 28mm of thread and you are installing 10mm spacers, it is best to get new bolts of 38mm thread length
TORQUE SETTINGS
Under- or over-torquing fasteners can lead to serious issues. Please refer to the vehicle manufacturer guidelines for the correct amount of torque setting for your vehicle to apply to the nuts/bolts. You can apply thread lock glue if you choose for extra security, however it is not required. Again, professional installation is recommended and we are not responsible for any damage caused by improper installation or inadequate torque setting
Specifically for spacers that come included with black screws to adjoin the two pieces, the recommended torque settings for said screws, as given to us by our supplier, are as follows:
M10x1.5: 48.7 Nm
M12x1.5: 85.0 Nm
