    Hubcentric rings on top of spacers?

    Hey guys,

    I am looking to order a set of xxr 531's in 17x9 for my car. They have an et of 25, and to achieve the offset of 10 I want to be flush with a set of KAMotors fender flares I will need to run a 15mm spacer.

    The question is, does anyone make a hubcentric spacer that has the 57.1 inset section to go over the hub and then a 73.1 ring on the outside for the new wheel? Will I have to get hubcentric spacers and then run a hubcentric ring on top of that?

    Thanks for the input.

    It would be cheaper to get spacers with hub rings separately. Tire rack.com has tons of hub ring sizes, best to call them though.

      are you saying that it would be beneficial (monetarily at least) to get hubcentric rings separate from the spacers?

        Also, side note. Is it likely I will need extended stud with 15mm spacers?

          Spacers will be 57.1 hubcentric (extends hub lip) + hubcentric rings + extended lug studs will be a must

            thank you! I'm getting tired of ordering parts I either break or don't need, hence why I have been checking a lot more lately...Any clue as to how much longer the studs/bolts should be?

              15mm spacer = 15mm longer bolt
              Don't go over, it will dig into the brake dust shield on the front or into the ebrake assembly in the rear.

              Also a good opportunity to switch to studs but that's not for everyone

                I'm thinking studs are the way to go since i'm doing so much work to this car anyways. Anyone know what the stock length is so I can order 15mm longer ones? Garagistic seams to be having a sale this weekend on other things, so I might as well add on to my order.

                  i think i may have answered my own question. Looks like 75-80mm studs is what i will want.

                    I did this recently with some ultraleggeras. Motorsport hardware makes lightweight hubcentric spacers and they sell a stud kit to go with them. Should be around 250 for everything but it's money well spent. Then you just need to find regular hub rings to fit your wheels. In my case it was a weird 68.1mm size
