Im getting HPH flares (or something simular) for the rear of my car. Currently it needs 1 in spacers for the rear to not hit the inside of the wheel well (barely not hit..) With the hph flares, I will have more flare and I will be wanting to fill them out better. So I think I want to go with a 1.5 in spacer that is bolted on top of my 3/4 in spacer. Price of 1.5 in spacers would be 120 bucks per pair.
What is my alternative? Are there studs that long? Yell at me with facts. Andrew |

Hey...all I know is the rule book in Zone 8 says they are not kosher....I had them on Frank and they came loose. I pounded the studs out, used them as spacers and then installed long studs. I "think" one reason they are not approved for DE/TT or racing is that it is hard to verify lugnut minimum turn depth without pulling the wheels...
I don't know who or what rule book they are going to use at the WCC/Willow event or even if there is going to BE a tech inspection. Prolly a good idea to ask Howard...because...I simply don't know. |
