Know where to get wheel spacers??


I'm looking to put some on the back of my 98. I think the 305 Dr's I'm about to get may rub on the inside just a bit. Looking for some quality yet cheap spacers. Anyone have any experience with these?

How is the quality. Are they coated or are they covered in surface rust? Also do you have to constantly tighten them.

I guess you didnt need new studs bcause they were so thin huh Matt? I really wanted atleast 1/2, guess it wouldnt be a good idea to run 2 of those 1/4 together.

Didnt need new studs to put on the wheels, but I did get in trouble at the track today for not having longenough ones! ARP studs here I come!

Yea most of them do have studs. Just the ones that Matt posted didnt have studs in them, thats why I was asking him.
