Wheel spacers

[new-yaris-owner]

I've done some research on internet to find some good wheel spacers and have not find. About 20mm.

Do someone have them on their car ?

I have a 2008 HB.

Thanks!

I run the 13mm Penguin Garage hub spacers for the rear... as the rears are terribly sunken in compared to front. May not be what you are looking for.... but lots of people on here have them.

and no complaints :)


Here's their website:

Check out H&R Trak+ spacers, I'm sure Garm at Micro Image could get them for you.

Awesome, guys !

Is it hard to install ? since I don't really know how to dissemble the brake setup.

Thanks again ;)

Not sure which one of us your asking, but if you have never done this sort of thing before. It might not be a bad idea to find a trust worthy Mechanic to do the work for you. The Penguin Garage unit requires removing the hub assembly, while the H&R spacers require installing longer studs. Both jobs take a certain amount of mechanical skill and proper tools. Which ever direction you chose, it will make a difference in track and fill out the fender wells.

The PG spacers were actually fairly easy to install. The hardest part was getting the drum off to get at the bolts. Read up on the PG spacer threads around here to get a feel for it.

My rims didn't clear the front disc brakes so I needed to order 5mm spacers. I got solid ones with a 54mm hole in the center to clear the front hub.

I used to run a 10mm H&R TRAK spacer on my 2005 Scion xB. Great product, well made, but not cheap. I plan on trying the Penguin Garage spacers next time around (hopefully this summer).

okay so 13 mm per side with penguin, and with hr you can get 90 mm total? So 116 mm total widening. Fun stuff, I wonder what that would do to handling?

Not to hijack the conversation, but will xB1 spacers work on a Yaris? I know a guy locally getting rid of these units below.

^ Hub spacers, I don't think so, although those do look pretty similar to our design.

Wheel spacers, yes.

Yeah, I don't know; they do looks similar. I've installed these kind of spacers on an xB1 back in 2005, but not intimately familiar with they design on the Yaris. I'm sure it's similar, just not sure if it's the same.

EDIT: Just got confirmation that they are different.

I'm about ready to order a set of the Penguin Garage hub spacers just to see if they will also fit my '87 Celica rear hubs. That car has alot more space between tire edge and the fender lip and with standard offset rims even my 205/50/15 Toyo RA-1s rub the strut housings. I got away from crash bolts on the rear by making my own camber plates and can still get rub. Look forward to giving this a try and letting the world know if it works for other Toyota chassis!

I've always wondered if you get some spacer do you have to get a alinment?

[33OH]

Anytime you mess with the suspension components, it's best to get an alignment.

hey if you can, measure the bolt spacing for the yaris hub while you're at it! I'm also interested to see what other cars are compatible with our rear hub (like certain gm cars with the 1st gen vitz)

This is what I'm putting on the Celica to make rear alignment easier. Top is the '87 solid arm, bottom is the '95 adjustable arm, just gotta eliminate the inboard adjuster cam and we're good to go!
