hey guys, I rec'd my spacers today. Just a quick question, was I suppose to buy hub rings too? I thought I read somewhere that because I have stock 17" sport wheels I didn't need the rings, that they were only for aftermarket wheels. Is this true?
Thanks in advance.

Genuine Audi/VW wheels don't use hubrings.

Default Thanks Mike.

Now I can't wait to get the other spacers from Lou (we're exchanging) so I can get them installed this weekend.
Thanks again.

Default I put spacers on because I wanted to push the wheels out...

MTM spacers are disigned to mate with the OEM hubs. They include the centre hub extensiion to take the weight of the car.

Will ship the 10s when I'm back in town on Thursday via UPS two-day! I just need to buy the 15mm bolts from Mike.

You'll love the spacers. Suddenly the OE 17s aren't so bad...

Who would've thought half an inch could make such a big difference? :^)

Default Yahooooooooooo!!!

can't wait to get them and put them on. But I guess I'll have to wait until next Monday before I get them. That's ok, I'll leave work early to get home and put them on.
