GTA front spacer and bolt size

Postby jon_viola » Fri Apr 05, 2013 6:23 pm

Hi

Could anyone tell me the sizes I'm looking for to add 5mm spacers to my front wheels? Hub/pcb/bolt size and length?

Hopefully wont need them but want to order just in case the Brembo callipers I have won't fit behind my wheels. Looking at them off the car in comparison with a spare calliper I have sitting around I think I'll be fine but don't want to be left stranded!

Thanks

Well at least the correct centre bore so it doesn't slop around!

Presumably 5mm longer than standard if adding a 5mm spacer.

Take one out and measure it?

Presumably you need bolts 5mm longer than the ones you already have which are hopefully the ones supplied by Azev rather than standard GTA bolts which I think have the wrong taper for the Azev wheels.

Sorry presumably Compomotive will have supplied replacement bolts as well. You will need to look at them to check they seat properly in the wheels and then measure the taper which may well be 60 degrees. Thread will be M12 x 1.5 for the 12 or 16 bolts. If you still have the stud then that will be M12 x 1.25 for the 4 nuts and ideal for a lock nut.
