Gauging interest on hub spacers for the yaris - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

most likely a 7" wheel.

Personally the 10mm would probably be best for you since you're running the wider tire.

agreed.

so here's how it should go:

+40mm or lower (+38 for example), purchase 10mm spacers (if your tire is 215 or wider)
+40mm or lower (+38 for example) purchase 13mm spacers if your tire is 205 or skinnier)

on a 7" wide wheel. anyone running 6.5" wheels, no matter what offset should be able to run the +13 spacers without ANY issues.

and FYI the bolts are long enough to handle two sets of 10MM if one so desired. (that'll make your rear track 40mm wider!)

i could, however, provide two stainless washers to be installed under the lower front bolt. this is how i achieved my current setup (toe out, and a little extra camber)

i have the SPC shims on it right now, and i put them on when the car was stock. the full alignment really changed the car in a good way so i dont want to lose that. but i could get another set of them, put the spacers on, get another alignment, and redo the shims. i like a tiny bit of toe-in the rear, stock it has massive toe in the rear.

or i could just leave the shims as is and add the spacers :rofl:

damn 20mm spacer would be pretty crazy.

I would suggest a realignment, you never know which setting can change once you take apart a suspension. :( (don't ask why I know...haha).

Definitely interested in the 13mm, although my wheels are +45 with 195 tires, sooooo should I do two 10mm or what?

I was just about to buy some wheel spacers because the sucked in look in the rear is starting to piss me off.

PETERPOOP · 04-30-2009, 02:49 PM

price for shipping to hawaii? :)

for your setup a +13mm would be a good idea to get the most out of it.

They are a pain to work with and not worth the price when you can get some washers that will do the same thing with a little math. :)

Must be because he's asking for money.

Just kidding.

Tamago is a sweetheart. He enjoys poetry, long walks in the park and hellaflush approved wheel setups.
