You see, I'm fitting my rims on my car and I've found that I need less than 1/8 of an inch to get them to clear the calipers. Five good sized flat washers ( one for each lug) would easily give me the clearance I need. Is this a really bad idea, dangerous, whatever?

QUOTE (JonV @ Mar 21 2005, 03:10 PM) Is this a really bad idea, dangerous, whatever? Both actually. I doubt the washers would give enough surface area to keep the wheel from shifting around. It shouldn't be too hard to find a cheap 1/4" wheel spacer which would be infinately better/safer. |
