Wheel spacers

[Stig_gti]

Morning guys.

I have a mk5 gti and will be fitting ttrs brakes with 340 tts discs.
Which size spacers will I need to fit under pro race 1.2 alloys thanks.

[dansmith180]

What offset and width are they?

You might get away without any

If you can hold on a week tops I will tell you.
I have the same wheels (18x8 et45) and the same brake setup.
I'm putting 12mm spacers on but that's more for looks than clearance.

I will report back after the weekend if you don't mind waiting.

They are 8" offset 45 tyres are 225 40 18.
Thanks

Brilliant yes I can wait in no rush to get the brakes fitted.
Thank you

Tbh I would have thought someone would be running this set up already.

Anyone else no what size spacers would be required

Info needed BUMP

I'd be surprised if you needed more than a 5mm spacer. My wheel is 8j et45 (doesn't look as clearancy as the TD's) and they fit without a spacer JUST.

Patience young padawan.
I'm just checking with Nick that I can use the unit tomorrow to sort my wheels out and I will be able to give you an answer then mate.

You need a 3mm spacer, Alex at AKS can supply these and slightly longer bolts
