wheel spacers

i have the chance to get some very cheap alloys ford fitment only trouble is they are 45 offset and i need 38 as any more and they will foul the wishbones. Anyway i was wondering if i could fit some whell spacers and was wondering if anyone knew if the sierra studs are lnog enough to to put the nuts on with enough thread to be safe and not wobble off which would not be good..
cheers me dears...

7mm is quite a lot. Ithink you'ld need longer studs but they're pretty easy to do- just wack out the old ones and press in the new ones....

Spacers

Hi Bob, I got some longer studs from Larkspeed in x gates. They also stock wheel nuts for Ford fitment wheels, i would even think that they would sell wheel spacers. I bought some Capri Brooklands Alloys on e-bay last year. Dropped mine from 15" to 13" with a different offset which widens the track by about 2 to 3 inches, and have had no wishbone issues. Can't think off the top of my head what the offset is , but if you want to pop over at the weekend for a shuffty i am located at Moortown. Cheers Eric.
