Spacers

Post by royhedger » Sat Mar 23, 2024 6:40 pm

I've always felt that the wheels on 480's need spacing out about 15mm to an inch to get nearer to the wheel arch. They seem to sit too far inboard if you know what I mean.
Has anyone added spacers to their wheels to bring them out a bit? If so did it work ok, what did you use, did the wheel bearings cope with it, was there any rubbing etc...?
