Wheel spacer be gone


Recommended Posts

Hello all, I was wondering if any of you out there have also incurred the issue with tire companies that will not touch a car with spacers/adapters. I am concidering designing some hubs and have them custom machined at some that have the built in spacer offset. I was wondering if others are also interested in it, how many of you, and what kinds of offsets are you interested in. I am going to do this with my 78 280Z but it will be fitted similar to the 240Z hub style because of the brakes. So any and everyone interested reply to this board so others can also see and I will figure the different sizes and see what kind of a deal we can get if we have many. Also what you all think this should be for price range. I am not going to add in any profits, or designing fees or anything. It will just be what they charge for machining them and don't forget there will be shipping and a box/s added to the price. I know several owners of machine shops in both LA and in Houston that I will ask quotes from once I finish the design. Currently the design is the same as the 240Z hubs but thicker by about 1.375 inches. Let me know if you have any suggestions even if you would prefer a material. Once I have the design all ready I will post it and the costs to machine and getting some boxes or a box at a shipping company. Hope this helps and it should remove issues from the tire companies.

Robert
