Anyone currently using H&R 10mm spacers with aftermarket wheels?
Purems.com and evolutionsports.com both told me that it isn't likely that the H&Rs will fit my aftermarket (Jaz/Axis) wheels. Any experience?

odd ... i've used H&R 5mm, 8mm, 15mm, 20mm, and 25mm without a problem
i'm currently waiting on the 10mm spacer to arrive -- might have it on tomorrow.
for what it's worth, i did have a problem with the ecs tuning 10mm spacer -- it did not work with the lm.

Pics for clarification
The bevel on the mounting lip is the problem, shown pretty clearly in the link below.
Only the 15mm, 20, and 25mm don't have a large bevel, which intereferes with aftermarket hubrings (except some, like BBS and OZ)<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1082707.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1082707.phtml</a</li></ul>

John, i have a set of the ECS 10mm spacers...and they worked with all my wheels
with no problems. RS4 replicas, OEM 5-spokes, BBS RS-GTs, BBS LMs. on the other hand, the H&R 10 didn't work on my BBS LMs without taking off the hubcentric ring on the LMs. the bevel was cut too high. and this was also in the case of the 12mm spacers i had as well. what's weird was, they both worked with the OEM wheels...just not my aftermarkets.
in response to meems H&Rs...he doesn't list 10mm or 12mm...those are the ones i had problems with. i also have 5mm and 8mm H&Rs with no bevel and they work fine....in addition to the 14mm, 20mm and 25mm ones (with ALL wheels).
