Looks like cooper s brakes to me. Theirs nothing wrong with spacers. I have them on mine. I guess he just wanted the wheels to fill the arches better.

gdgd i thought they go through like wheel bearing like theres no tomorrow

Yea if you have massive ones on their then they do tend to munch bearings. Ones that big wont make to much of a difference though.

[tadleysimon]

spacers have been used for years and although there generally frowned upon as they can eat bearings ect, there usually ok,

however, your ones arnt, there universal ones and dont fit centrally, dont refit them when you go to rebuild, just bin them, if you need to fit spacers then get the ones with a 4inch pcd

ok thanks i was gonna bin them anyway going to get some banded steelies for her defo keeping the 10's tho hopefully banded stellies hope fully 10x7/8

[jayare]

When you bin the spacers, you'll need to change the studs as well - the ones currently fitted aren't threaded all the way down - if your nuts run into that bit, the wheel won't tighten correctly,

These Clubman Estates are not common in Portugal, and I really like them! Keep going with the project, I am enjoying it.

Sevens and eights are to wide for the road, there's a nice set of banded 10x6's on ebay atm though. Clicky
