We do the H&R ones.

It's just like changing a wheel, except with the 20mm spacers you bolt the spacer onto the hub and then bolt the wheel onto the spacer.

is it best to have spacers just on the back

 

[DamianPM]

A lot of people just put them on the back to fill the arches as standard, the Ibiza has a wider front track then the rear. You can put them on the front as well though.

what would you suggest
and how much is gonna cost me

 

[DamianPM]

What wheels do you have on and have you lowered it?

Sorry to hijack the thread, but my new set of wheels are going to be 1.5inches wider on the back than front, would it be fine to put 20mm spacers up the front to compensate? Thanks

 

[DamianPM]

It depends a lot on the offset/et really. What are they on your wheels?

Standard 17 inch cupra alloys its on standard springs will hopefully be lowering it about 30 mm

 

[BigWill]

It'll be 35 up front and 30 on the back

It's personal choice really then. I'd say go for 20mm rear and at the most 10mm front but only if you think they need it.

I'd say you won't need spacers on the front then. I'd put them on a see what you think first.

Whats the best price you can do for the rears dont think i do the front because the geomantry and u rekon the handling well defo improve with the back ones cheers

 

[DamianPM]

It would be 5% off so £100 plus the £9.95 postage.

Kind regards,
