In theory it shouldnt really matter if only the fronts have spacers because the back is a different axle so the the running width of it all will still be the same. | |

Surely you should put spacers all round rather than just the front 2 wheels? | |

Yeah the pulling and vibrating will be the balancing, only costs me £4.11 per wheel, only need the front 2 doing. | |

I already got the sapcers on the front, so it doesnt rub. The standard wheels I had were def ET 43. | |

It seems strange that these wheels are rubbing the brakes TBH, i can understand on the 1.8sri that has bigger brakes, which needs ET40, but i can't see why your car needs this, the standard Sxi wheels are ET49, and the 16" Sri ones that i have are ET40. I can only reccomend if they are rubbing to get spacers to push them away from the brakes, make sure you also get the same size or spacer all round, or if you have to get 2 bigger than the other 2, put the bigger ones at the rear. | |

The standard 13's I took off said ET43 on them, and they aint been touched since I bought the car new. | |

Why is the need for spacers worrying? I was adviced to get them as they rub on the brakes or sumthing without them. Its my first set of alloys so I didnt know much before I got them, but I havent paid the guy for them as he says I can give them back if I have any probs. | |
