Hey guys first of all sorry for my stupid question, but I really wants to clarify some information regarding wheel spacers. I have 17' volk f zero challenge wheels sitting on my R34 GTT. But the wheel offset is not quite what I want. So I was thinking to install some hub centric wheel spacers to get that "FAT" look. My questions are,

1) should spacers hub diameter match my wheel inner hub diameter ?

2.) If yes where can I buy them ?

3.) Or should I just go and buy any hub centric spacers which match my car ? (Such as Justjap spacers)

I'v attached some of my current pictures.

Any information regarding this would be really helpful. Again sorry for my questions. Just new to this whole wheel spacer subject.

Thank you :)

1. 66.1mm

2. GKTech ones are good quality, bolt on

3. Spacers are illegal (unless you own a Porsche that came with spacers from factory). It will nullify your insurance.

Your best bet is to sell the wheels and get something that fits to your liking.

Nothing wrong with your current wheels, they're perfect IMO. I'm guessing you want to enter your car into stance judgement arena A1 fullysickyo so sell your wheels, buy negative offset cast wheels from Phillipines/China and chop your springs.

^^^As above - you will need both hubcentric spacers and hubcentric adapters to go from your 66.1 to the Volk 73mm or whatever they are (in fact you should have those adapters now).

To me your wheels look fine... pretty flush and no ridiculous and illegal "stretch".

Thanks for all the information. I didn't know that spacers will nullify my insurance. So its a no go anyway. It seems like the best option is to get new wheels... Thanks again for your help :) :)

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
