16x7 +35....How much spacer? (I searched, and I suck I guess)

[Works243t]

I searched, and there are so many threads with so many pages, its daunting.

That being said, how much spacer TO LOOK GOOD/RIGHT, not just to clear the inner bits? The wheels are Konig Remembers and the deal is just too good to pass up, unless I will be spending an arm and leg on spacer/tires etc.

Thanks in advance.

I would say 15mm front and 20mm for the rear and your set.

[Works243t]

Thank you sir.. Just curious if that is from calculation or experience?

I was thinking about 20mm myself since factory is ~15mm and these are 35..

may i ask what "deal" you are getting on these remembers? brand new remembers with the correct offset are like $550 for all 4.

$300 so not amazing, but I'm thinking I can get them a bit cheaper. Tires are no worries, I know a distributor, so ~$400 with spacers (I have some tires now) for a perfect set of remembers...

What are your thoughts..

[416stroker]

it would be cheaper to buy the right offset spacers are expensive, Like 300 for a full set.

[Works243t]

Probably go that route then..

Thanks guys.

Ya I think most good hubcentric spacers are like 100-150 for Two.

Some good HC spacers from BMP for about $65 a pair shipped, just got some myself and they are very high quality Italian made.

[yberther]

aren't they just turned down al to a certain id/od??

Sort of..The BMP ones are billet then drop forged and machined. Even cheap Chinese ones are 40 bucks and then you have to find the right hub ring to fit your wheel because hub centric boss is usually larger than the ID of the spacer.

FYI, My 16x7 et38 Mille Miglia MM11-2's on 205/45/16's clear the insides with 10mm spacers. That's just to clear with some room to spare, not to look "cool". so I'd agree with the previous statement that getting to ~et20 would be good with 15mm or 20mm spacers on the et35's. I'd also agree with the statements that it's better to get wheels that fit :)
