~ i would go with option number 2... a specific application... not universal.


ps. remember... you will need longer lugs.

the 2nd one would be right? but isn't the first one specific for the benz "w170" as well or is that not what we need at all?

The first one is universal? is that because it has so many holes for the lugs?

I bought the ones on the second link from the same seller. Great seller and super fast shipping. However they didn't work for me. So I had to buy a set of 15mm spacers to fix the issue. The 20mm spacers would produce a clunk sort of noise when I made left turns. I was using them on a 16x7 slk wheel. If your interested in buying them I'll be happy to make you a deal. What part of the country in? How does $50 with shipping sound? Be sure to measure the lugs before so you don't go to far into the hub.

the tire rack carries them.

These are nice because they have the bolt to secure the spacer to the hub replacing the bolt holding the rear rotor. These wouldn't work for me because I change my back wheels very often and put the stocks back on. It would be just another procedure making me late to the track. If I was using these spacers to permanently install my rear wheels, I would consider this style. Any of these hub centric spacers do snap into the wheel very tight, and unless the hub centric ring is a perfect fit the wheel would have to be tapped on with a rubber hammer to properly sit on the hub. I pushed them on my 2nd set of wheels and they fit very tight and stay on the wheel not the hub. I think with the 20mm spacers you will need to get a little longer lugs. I think part of my problem was that I didn't get enough lug into the hub. The 15mm still gave me the clearance I needed and add 5mm of lug depth without hitting the parking brake mechanism inside the rear rotor. Good luck.Cruzinquick

hey andrew,
i love your car. very classy. i wanted to ask you, i just got the eibach prokit to lower my crossfire, i want to put spacers on and was wondering if 10mm in the front and 15mm in the back would fit without rubbing etc. Also, would i need longer lugs.
If you get a chance can you please reply to the message?

thanks!

NEVER... EVER... EVER... use NON hub centric spacers on a performance car. You want the load on the hub, NOT the lugs.

Just letting you know if you don't already... :D

Cheers!
