The fronts on BAD TUB rub on the inside at full lock...so I need to space it out a bit. I could have haves an 8 up front but went with 7s....that's what I get listening to free advice.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

I'll sell you an assload of washers for $50 a side. Custom made.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) Sounds like a machine shop visit to me. It's just a spacer and the VW wheels aren't hub-centric or anything crazy. Just need longer studs. Tom |

Get some 1/4" aluminum material and drill some holes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

PepBoys sell 1/4, 5/16, and 3/8 spacers.
I think I get the 6 lug one and have to drill two holes to make it work... Very cheap also. Rich |

Way to easy...
Lots of quick and simple jokes flew into my head... Seriously, Either convince someone with a lathe to make you some (Mike) or the guy on ebay. I had them stacked up on my racecar...over an inch...but on a street car, I would say get a single piece one. I had studs also, so it was easy to change the size of the spacers... Rich |

I could always press in long studs and do the stack thing. I think the front end is a Karmann Ghia disc brake unit.
Guess I'll cruise the VW forums and look and see what's out there...... |

Hey Z,
You can find VW Passat or Audi A4 bolts that will work just fine. In fact, I used them over the stock Bug bolts. Go order some online, I know the Audi guys are always needing longer bolts to fit spacers and their bling rims. Those newer bolts are MUCH higher quality than any Bugpack POS. Tom |
