Saving your video for future reference, I have veltsports 20mm spacers I have been dying to put on my mk6.5 gli, trying to get new brakes and rotors so I can do it all at once 💪🏾
I'm curious what size wheels are those and what's the offset a lot depends on wheel offset. For instance I just got 12mm spacers for the rear because 15mm were just a hair too much and they would rub a touch at times My wheels are 18x8.5 et45 with 245/40/18 that's on my VW Alltrack which is lowered with Golf R springs and shocks. The tires look monstrous from behind. Your set up before spacers is really tucked in a lot. A little advise for the future buy a wheel hanger they're cheap and make the job of R&R your wheels much easier especially when using spacers EDIT: Oh yeah those are narrow wheels with an offset (ET49mm) if you go with a wider wheel and lower et those spacers will be too much. If you ever change wheels many wheels to choose from look for lighter weigh wheels and smaller spacer you can save a lot of unsprung weight which is a good thing, VW's stock wheels hover around 25lbs and up and a lot of aftermarket wheels are now around 18-19lbs plus they're wider. I'll say after you put spacers on it looks so much better 👍👍 Oh, one more thing always use a star pattern when torquing your wheels don't go in a circle.
thinking of some spacers on mine... i have vmr wheels but want that extra poke LOL. quick tip: tighten lugs nuts snug, but put car on ground and then torque them down. helps get correct torque w the weight of the car
@braydenhardman3112 as long as they have the same hub centric ring inside the wheel they will work. If your aftermarket wheel uses a larger diameter ring then it wont
No you don’t have to since there are wheels studs and not studs on the spacer. If you were running a thicker spacer then you would probably have to run bolts on the spacer and wheel

Heck yeah keep us updated
Have you experienced any vibration at 70mph+? Setup looks really great by the way.
No it’s been perfectly fine ever since. No vibration cause it keeps it hub centric

18in wheel and whatever comes on the performance pack

Yea I re torqued them on the ground. Umm yea I’d definitely do 20mm all around then. You’ll get that front poke with 20 to 25mm spacers
So I would need 20m in the rear and 15m for the front? I golf r wheels and the offset is 7.5
Yes indeed but you can only go up to 235
will these work with non factory rims?
Yes
@@jacobMMotorsport are u positive? because in the desc of the spacers it says its recommended for stock wheels
@braydenhardman3112 as long as they have the same hub centric ring inside the wheel they will work. If your aftermarket wheel uses a larger diameter ring then it wont
@@jacobMMotorsport thanks a lot
Nice video. Just lowered my GTI and I have some rpf1s with 235 tires coming soon. Considering spacers if it helps with wheel rub
Definitely recommend this setup. The wheels poke just enough where it looks nice but not to much where they rub
I run 245s on mine. Just took out the fender screws and I don’t rub unless I’m at full lock, you’ll be fine
What exhaust system & tune are you running?
As the car sits it’s running a AWE exhaust and IE TUNE
@@jacobMMotorsport is that the AWE touring or track exhaust? It’s sounds great! 👍🏼
Did you use a torque wrench on the spacer itself?
No you don’t have to since there are wheels studs and not studs on the spacer. If you were running a thicker spacer then you would probably have to run bolts on the spacer and wheel
