I have second pair but I'd like to keep them around until I figure out what I want to run on the street. PM me a zip and I'll get you shipping quote and a paypall address. Are these hub-centric? I've heard some bad things about spacers that aren't hub-centric. Stan, will I need a 2" spacer for the 18x10.5 set? If not, what size would I need front and back? I'll be installing the C5 front brakes so I've heard that will take 0.25" out of the needed front spacer thickness.

I'll be installing the C5 front brakes so I've heard that will take 0.25" out of the needed front spacer thickness. My spacers are non Hub-centric and I haven't had any problems. I got out the dial indicator once and checked wheel runnout. I don't remember what I got, but at the time I didn't think it was very much. Need or want? A number of spacer thinknesses will work. I told you above what will work and all my info is documented on the 18x10.5 on a thirdgen thread. What I want or would like is 2/2.25 front/rear as a starting point then add on slip ons to get it spot on. I have C5 brakes in front and a 2" spacer. In the back I have a 4th gen width rear with .375" slip on spacers. Rear track is slightly narrower than the front. It'd be nice if I had .5" slip ons instead of .375. Or you could get out a tape measure and a plum bob and check this yourself.

I may need them for the back too, but I'm also trying to find a 4th gen rear end so I was planning on holding off with a second pair for now. Let me know what you have. Mike
