Wheels are hitting my calipers.....

[Cupra Gsy]

Hi about 7months ago i brought a set of deep dish wheels for my cupra and the company told me the were a direct fit but to make them fit i had to put 8mm spacers.

So last night i started touching metal on the pads and went to change them today but the wheels wont clear the calipers unless i have 15mm spacers has anyone got any ideas of where i can get longer bolts or is 15mm to much of a strain on the bolts as the wheel wont sit on the round lip of the hub.

Cheers

hubcentric spacer req'd + longer bolts

Yeah definatly need 15mm hub-centric spacers. Get some FK ones with bolts and you're sorted

I'm surprised that you could get the wheel onto the hub with 8mm..! Then I suppose 8mm are too small to get in hub-centric to fit over the hub...

wth 15mm spacers do you think my tires will hit my arch as they are 8 inch wide

All depends what the offset of your wheel is. Easiest way to do it is measure how much room you have left.
