PG Hub spacers group buy
Hello everyone,
I've contacted Penguin Garage regarding the rear spacers since Garm is not working on MicroImage any more. Unfortunately they haven't done a run for a while, but they said if there is enough demand they might make a run. I've seen couple of people here asking about the spacers so hopefully we can make it happen. If you don't know about PG spacers here's some info: The rear hub spacers come in both 10mm and 13mm sizes and come with everything needed to install. They will work on all Toyota Yaris (NCP91) and Scion xD. Rear hub spacers attach between the hub and the rear axle and widen the rear track of the car. Hub spacers have the following benefits: -Wider rear track increases handling -safer/easier to install than wheel spacers and maintenance free -provide a more aggressive stance -eliminate the need for longer wheel studs (unlike most wheel spacers) These rear hub spacers come complete with everything needed for correct installation including: -2 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminium hub spacers (10mm or 13mm width) -8 Class 12.9 socket head capscrews -8 Hardened washers -1 Packet of anti-corrosion compound check here to see how they look: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37483 Please post here and let others know, Penguin Garage will be following this thread to gauge the interest.

I'm interested, just curious on price. I'm planning on running 6.5" wide tires with a +38 offset so i'm not sure if I can also squeeze a 10mm spacer in there as well, although seeing how the rear is narrower I may be ok.

Add me to the list. I contact PG about a month ago ready to buy some and no one ever responded.

Nice to see a group buy around these parts... It's been a while for sure!
FYI: I'm not sure about newer Yaris models, but the 07 has a weird offset on the rear passenger-side hub. I believe it's 3mm but I'm sure CTScott has posted a precise measurement in another thread. I would be VERY interested in getting a single slimmer one to prevent the tyre from rubbing, since the 10" PG spacer I have on rubs a bit when there's more than one person in the car. BTW, I have 15x6.5" ET +38 wheels and 205/55/R15 tyres. @Vitz_Q8: Please PM me to let me know about the details on this group buy (ie, will you be receiving all payments & items and shipping them later?) TIA and best of luck!

Sorry guys for not replying. I've been very busy this week.

Here's a quote from PG when I contacted them on Facebook: "Note: since this is a small run and will have improved packaging price will be higher. Right now we're looking at $100usd for the set." Quote:

Then in that case i'm in for some 13mm. In my opinion these type of spacers are the safest/best type due to them moving the whole wheel bearing out not just the wheel.
Thanks for letting me know the fitment with your set up

question , are the spacers behind the hub cos i have a set and only reason that i have not install is do to wheel bearing hub removal.
If you have higher km car that has seen many winters u will not remove the hubs with out damage, new rear hub bearings my cost non abs from toyota is 90 bucks each. |

here is a comparison of the fitment between the wheels they're 15x7 +35 the front are perfect but the rears still need spacers IMO:
Rear passenger side Front passenger side Rear driver side Front driver side |

Thats 5 people interested. How many people does PG need to get this running again? Come on people! Probably one of the best mods for the money you can do to this car.

I am interested. Not sure if I would need the 10mm or 13mm. I am wanting my rims to sit flush, or near flush to the fender. While I have not bought any of the following, here are my plans.
Wheels: 16x9 +15 offset (same for front and rear) Suspension: Megan Coilovers Also looking to add about -3 degrees camber to the front and -5 to the rear. |
