Default Wheel guru's help needed...

So I want to a wider mean stance for my rear. Right now I am running a hub centric rings on all 4 tires. Rims have a OD of 72mm stock is 66.56mm

I am at a offset at 40 in the rears.

Do I need hub centric spacers to do this properly? If so whats my best fit to get the centerbore back at stock and my offset back to stock? Whats the best place to order from?

America's tire said they are highly against any kind of spacers, but i want a more wider stance like I had at stock.

TIA.

For a 20 mm offset (40 mm to 20 mm) I would look at Eibach Pro Spacers and I'm afraid you'll be stuck with using the centering rings for the bore mismatch. I presume this is for the rears only?

I've not done this, but the rings should fit inside the bore of the spacer just the same as the wheel. Kind of a sandwich, but should work just fine.

The Eibachs come with a set of lug bolts to attach them to the vehicles hub. Then you'll need bolts to attach the wheel to the Eibachs. I would presume that the ones you have now will work for that.

Yeah hopefully everything goes well. I just bought a set for 81 shipped via Amazon. Went back to Amazon they are 170 right now. I guess I got a good deal.
