I'm getting 25mm hubcentric H&R spacers but at £108 each in saving :( I want them now though lol if u get one u couldn't fit them without the car looking a bit strange and could cause damage
 
Haha its annoying isnt it!
I have decided some things recently..
1. My drumkit can wait for its stupily expensive upgraded cymbals, i spend everyday using my car and i want it to look the shit :)
2. I bought 1 set of 25mm spacers yesterday, should be here mid-week :D going to try them on front and back, and see if i need 20mm or 30mm for the front or the back. Im thinking the 25mm will be fine for the front, but the backs might want 30mm, but i think ill do with 25mm :D
3. Im going to lower my car myself in the next week or two (hopefully!)
Going to take great care and consideration when doing it, will take plenty of pics, and let everyone know how it goes!

The Door Sills and Boot Mat I want can wait a few more weeks xD
Ultimate twingo here i come!
 
this page takes some scrolling down :)

pretty heavy.. just a lump of metal!
Got the on the back first, my plan was to try one on the front and one on the back to see if i was happy with the spacing before commiting to another set. Thinking that they may be to short or long for the front or back.

Shouldnt be too low! should just be about right :D
Hope you like!
 
Do these bolt to the hub first then u use original bolts? How much were they also if u don't mind? I'm after 25mm but after reading up I'm only getting the ones that bolt to the hub and then standard bolts
 
Didn't need them, the spacer bolts onto the hub using provided bolts, and you use the standard bolts to screw your wheel onto the spacer :)
 
What brand are those spacers? I'm planning on getting Eibach spacers but I keep wondering how much they weigh.

That just showed me how low my car actually is :shock:

From wheelarch to rim, I have 84mm ...
 
Hollie, I just shopped around, about £80 on a foreign site somewhere :/ just ordered them and hoped for the best!
Weebob, you'll so want some for your own ;)
And Yotah, my car is a friggin 4x4!!! :( springs sooooooon!
 
Would just like to add, all 4 spacers fitted, + rear lowering springs ;) and no it doesn't look like its pointing to the sky, it actually looks just about level haha! Pics in the morning

Ok I raised it since as you just can't drive it that way!
 
Hahaha awesome! It's low enough for me! It's a daily driver so it has to be bareable haha :p
Looking awesome that car of yours! I just need to get hands of some spring compressors and the fronts will be done!
 
lovely looking cars both of you
but yotah i would hate to drive that on the crappy roads round uk its bad enough sometimes with cup chassis and pot holes (uk seems to love to make pot holes that cant be avoided)
