Spacer questions....

Plan to fit 10mm spacers to front to allow clearance for brembos. Then probably 12mm at back. Something like this anyway. This a decent setup?

Another question is should I go for adapters (to change from 5x100 to 5x112) while I'm at it? Reason for this is it would allow me to fit the newer genuine alloys designed for 8P. Kind of kills two birds.

Any downsides of these adapters over normal spacers?

Also, are Forge good? Or are the more expensive H&R ones that much better? Thanks.

I know Bill supplies Forge spacers.

Ideally the best setup is one where you don't need to run spacers because the wheels are the correct offset. But if you need to run spacers the smaller the better.

Personally I think there are enough wheels available in 5x100 that I haven't seen the need to get adapters. Also I don't think you would be able to get an adapter only 10mm thick.

Do you already have the 8P wheels that you want to fit?

Hi Damian, no don't have the 8P wheels yet. I'm running multifit reps at the moment. Was just thinking ahead and thought this might be a good idea. (By the way I'll be ordering the AP coilovers from you soon). Many thanks.
