S14 stock wheels
Help me please. I bought some stock S14 wheels to replace the *~delightful!~* 17" chromies on my car... But they wont fit cause of the spacers... Is there a way of getting the spacers off or do the s14 wheels have to be machined

Re: S14 stock wheels
Is the wheel going to be sticking out way past the fenders?
Is it a bolt on spacer or floating spacer? If its just one of those 2, they might just be seized into the wheel. Might want to look at a photo...

Re: S14 stock wheels
its a hub ring
just pry it off
They are designed to sit in centre bore of wheel and to fit over hub to ensure perfect fit of aftermarket wheels to help prevent vibration

Re: S14 stock wheels
Oh that! I had a similar problem when I bought a bolt on spacer that was meant for a nissan and the fto's centre bore was 1mm too big for the spacer!.
Make sure the s14 wheels have a 67mm centre bore, no less, because that's what my spacer has and it fits perfect. I think that would be the only thing in your way.

Re: S14 stock wheels
I tried BBS's off a R32 GTR..
1) too wide to fit the guard.
2) the offset was way off and the dish of the wheel was touching the rear of the suspension..
