    As I remember it's a system with five additional screws. Therefore you have to count with a little bit more weight. Workaround: I compensate the additional weight by refueling always a half liter less gasoline... ;-)

    Hey Bert, noticed you're in Riverside close to me - we should meet up.

    I had Eugenio lower my car about a half inch....looks a lot better but not ricer slammed.

    I will likely order Hill Engineerimg through Ricambi and they have recommended either 11mm or 15mm. The other issue I have is that with grey Scud wheels on the 430 spider, I may have to order the expensive titanium bolts, as chrome bolts would look kind of off.

    Really wish I could use my current titanium bolts.

    This could be interesting - will look into this.

    I am installing a set of bolt on 25mm this spring. Bit nervous since it looks like they will just fit by measurement but have not heard of anyone installing a spacer wider than 15mm.

    bumping an old thread....

    GWARREND did you also install a front wheel spacer on your car as well?

    I am looking to see how wide of a front spacer the 360 will accommodate without any fender clearance issues.

    I did not install fronts. I would recommend 15-18mm for front.

    What kind of wheels are mounted?
    For me it looks like there is not enough space for 25mm spacers... ;)

    Your 18" challenge wheels are the same offset as the stock 18x10" wheel (ET39), with the exception that your wheels are 0.5" wider (1/4" wider on the inside and 1/4" wider on the outer face).

    with that being said, you are running the exact same set-up I plan on running on my BBS LM's and want to know what size tires you have on the front and rear and whether or not you are successful using spacers...if you decide to give it a try. ;)

    but I would guess you could safely run at least 15mm spacers.

    Yeah I was originally thinking 15mm but saw the above pics with 25mm's and that was why I was canvassing a response from our beloved community

    got a 08 430 with scud wheels and lowered but needs spacers… looks like 15mm front and back but what's the advantage or disadvantage of type 1 vs 2 spacers ?
    i've always done type 2 on my other cars…. and why is there no 15mm for both type 1 and 2 ? shouldn't it be the same ?!??

    Image Unavailable, Please Login Hope this thread is still alive. I’ve put some oem 430 wheels on my 360 spider. I would need spacers because the offset of the wheels is bigger then 360 so the wheelbase is slimmer the. Original. Thinking of putting 25mm in rear and 15mm in front. Cars is also lowered with the original suspension, I think about 3cm.
