im in school for precision metal machining and i see alot of people on other car forums asking about wheel spacers ive posted similar threads on those forums but all i got were people pretty much hating on my idea but my idea was that could i maybe make wheel spacers? i have ideas of making the spacer bolt up to the hub and then having studs for lug nuts for the wheel in the spacer itsself if anyone has any other info i could use or other ideas of how it could or could not work please tell me again this was just an idea that if i get some more info or some "it could work" type posts i will try it and get back to you

IF you decide to do this please be sure to research and get the CORRECT aluminum to make them from so you dont end wrecking your car when they break.
There are many factors that you want consider before you go machining something that holds you wheel to your car.....dont want it falling off do 75 down the highway...:mrgreen:Need Custom spacers and adapters?
PM for information
