    might get some spacers made up....

    might get 3mm spacers made up for the e30 hub 57.1mm with only 4 holes in it for the bolts. They will be aluminum. i needed 3mm spacers for the front of my car, and the universal spacers are junk so i thought i would get some laser cut. and then there nice and perfect. so i would get a bunch made up if there is interest in them, also might get like 5mm ones made up. with the 3mm spacers your hub will still stick out i think so there is no need for hub centric rings on them. will just be a flat plate. not sure exactly what they will cost let me know if your interested at all, and any other suggestions to this would be great.

            See what a 10mm cost, that seems to be a common need that no manufacturers make.

            A 10mm hubcentric spacer would open up alot of wheel choices.

                No, they sell 3, 5, 8, 15, and 20 mm. Sucks. I want 10 dammit!
                I have some 10mm ones that came with my MM II's. They are pretty damn sweet.

                      They totally don't have a lip on the inside to "carry" the wheel.
                      I want a spacer like they have in 15mm, just 10.

                        2mm is tiny. If 10mm works, 8mm should work just as well.

                          Here's a list of FK spacers all with 57.1 hub openings (anything bigger than 12mm has hubcentric extension, below that there's not enough material to make it happen). I have the 20mm type A ones, and they're just as quality as H&R.

                          3,5,8,10,13,15,20 mm in type A (normal spacers)

                          also Type B bolt-on spacers in 15,20,25,30,35 mm

                            Tire Rack has what you need (3mm, 57.1 center bore, aluminum, etc.), and they're cheap ($12/each). Part number is TR364.

                              I've heard of FK spacers falling apart over time. Personally, I cannot see how this would happen unless the hub face was *really* nasty prior to installation....
