MichaelTT: if the stock lug is 14mmx1.5 and 26mm long...
Does this lug work with Sportecs as well? I will not get mine till later this week and am trying to figure out what spacers to order in. BTW thanks on the spacer write up.
So with TTSchwings info:
If i use a 8mm spacer then i will need a
14mm x 1.5 thread......34mm long lugs?
Thanks

ok...thanks...so for an 8mm spacer then i will need
14mm x 1.5 thread......34mm long lugs in a "Conical style locking lugs seat" ? I would imagine ECS will know what im talking about.
Oh and before i install the wheel with spacer, I should lay the spacer on the wheel and the hub to see if it sits flush before mounting it right?
MichaelTT: if i do get the 5mm HR non hubcentric...then if i do get a shimmy in the wheel, does that simply mean the spacer is not installed correctly? I like the 5mm spacer because i dont want to bring the front wheel out that much, i would only do it just in case the wheel rubs on the suspension. So it would be eithe 5 or 8mm hubcentric on the front and 10mm on the rear. Sound ok? TIA

With H&R 5mm spacer...just slip over hub, align holes for lugs and ...
being 5mm the hub extension is such there still remains a slight lip for the wheel to align to...problem is with thicker spacers...10+mm where there is no remaining hub lip for wheel to align to...just be careful not to move spacer when installing wheel. I have had no problems with spacer/wheel vibration so far.
