I think stock bolts would be just fine with 5mm spacer. More than 5mm's will need longer bolts.

BTW, I wouldn't touch those spacers!

Do yourself a favour and get quality hubcentric spacers... it's worth the extra bucks.

With cheap spacers, you run the risk of vibration at speed... which is all too common.

I'll check around. I figured the same with 5mm stock would be fine. If you see some 5mm good quality let me know. I did a little looking a around and didn't find however I did see some 10mm. That is a bit much I think.

If you really want to use spacers, don't go cheap!

You can buy Ichiba aluminum/magnesium alloy hubcentric spacers on ebay for about $60 a pair (plus shipping) including longer studs.

Yup, I think 5mm in the rear with your 40mm wheels should look good!

Just FYI, I have 15mm rear spacers on my xB. They are the H&R TRAK spacers, and they are very high quality. They came with longer wheel studs, too (where were a PITA to install).

For a smaller spacer, check here:

So is it the front that has the problem with rubbing? Not so much the backs?

With a 205/50/16 and a +35 offset wheel, I keep getting told I'll rub in the front when lowered ...

Yup, you'll get major rubbing if lowered!

I don't mid a little poke but I don't want any on my yaris just flush or a little closer to flush. I'm pretty sure 5mm would do the trick.

Okay, we're talking about the Yaris/Vitz now... right?

Front: With a 35mm and 205/50's and lowered, you'll have major rubbing problems.

Rear: With 35mm, 205/50's and lowered, you'll have rubbing under load.

Yes, Yaris. Thanks for clarifying that.

Hey brickhardmeat,

If you're running ET40mm (and 205/50/15's), you should be flush up front... is that right?

Take a level and a mm ruler and see how many mm's will bring the rears out to where you'd like them (to match the fronts).

Then look for the size spacers you want... they're available in a wide range of mm widths.
