here without, there is a big difference, fills the guards in nice. There is a bit of an issue where the spacer doeant quite fit over my centre hubs. Will put a gauge on them and have a local machine shop take a couple of mm out of the centres.

The bore hole in the spacer needs to be 67mm diameter to suit Mitsubishi hubs. This needs to be a precise fit plus the spigot on the spacer needs to match the bore hole on the alloy wheels. (A hub centric ring may also be required to adapt the spacer to the wheel) This ensures that all the wheel studs are not unduly stressed by taking the load for the wheel centering.
