    Wheel spacers?

    Does anyone use them, or tried them? I think I'm going to have an interference issue and I'll need about 1/8" to 1/4" more to maintain a gap between the strut and tire on the back.

    If anyone uses / used them, can you give me a part number or a supplier? I know I'll need longer wheel studs to maintain the correct thread engagement.

    Hubcentric spacers for 5x100 VW's are also a nice fit.

    I should have said the front, even though that suspension is on the back now.

    Any measurements what our hub size is? Is it the same as a neon?

    Mike, do you know if that is the same hub size for the rear axle on minivan?
    I found that the balance weights on the brake drum interfered with the Bogarts. So I need some wheel spaces for the rear.
    Thanks!
