Default Front wheel spacers.

Does anyone know the specs on the front wheel spacers? I know a lot of people have trouble getting them over the grease cap. If anyone could link me to the correct wheel spacers or have the specs for ones that work, it would be really helpful. Thanks

Take the grease caps off, install spacers, put caps back on. No problem.

Does the center bore have to be any different than the rears?

Spacers or the actual wheel the diameter should be the same as they are hubcentric, maybe if the grease caps have been taken off to do the bearings the caps could get damaged taking them off and putting them back on.

The OEM wheels are hub centric so stick with what those bores are or you will be in trouble.

Alright guys, got the spacer. They sit about a mm off the hub right now. Any ideas? Maybe hit them with a mallet to get them on? And no, I haven't fully put them on OR driven with them

Mallet? Use your head.

Not really a hit, more of a tap. Just wondering if there is a way to get them on. Appreciate the kind words though.

how much are you spacing?
I will post a part that is 10mm and is correct for our cars.
unlike the others ive read about this is a capped spacer, pics are wrong. it will not interfere with the dustcap or hub.
if you call ichiba this is the part they will tell you is correct. they are not free. but you wont get wheel shake
the s is very important in the part number
Ichiba MB-50310S-125 Version I Wheel Spacer (5X112 10mm)

They're 20mm. I don't track it, just more for my aesthetic pleasure of my eye. It just sits off of the hub about a millimeter. Don't really know how to get them on. I looked at your part but the reason I went with these is because they were half the price, and specs are exactly the same.

You didn’t read my post in its entirety,
i stated the pictures posted for part are wrong, everywhere I see.
it is a capped spacer with lips Not open and flat.. kinda like a zorro hat.
They come in two thickness.
if you go w 10mm spacers without lips and can drive 60 mph wo issue you are good.
mine wouldn’t.
it can work for others but wouldn’t for me on a 40 k mileage srt
lightly driven. And babied. Several hundred yards or a quarter at a time.
