    Hi, does anyone know somewhere that would make me up four wheel spacers please. I need 5mm thick spacers, the centre hub hole is 65mm, the maximum diameter of the spacer is 148 and the pcd is 108mm.
    I live in Dublin but I travel to Tullamore now and then so if you know a good machine shop somewhere on route it would be great.
    If I could buy 5mm thick spacers that had a centre hub hole of 65mm and a maximum diameter of 148mm then I could drill the wheel nut holes and this would be also a plan.
    Thanks!
    YEAH!

    What car are they for? Lots of spacers available off the shelf presumably cheaper than getting them made up.

    very hard to find hubcentric ones off the shelf i found, and the safety of the non hubcentric ones is fairly questionable in some cases.

    I agree re the safety of non hubcentric. I asked what car he had as for many cars they are available. He is looking for 5mm thick spacers so they wont be thick enough to be able to create a new mounting lip on the spacer itself unless he wants to fit wheels with a much larger centre bore.
