I use wheel spacers on my Street Serpent (wide body) WITh ET lugs of course. They are cut out of billett aluminum. No problems whatsoever.

ROCKET62 also has a Street Serpent and I think he is using House of billett spacers.
If John isn't too busy fighting off the "TT temptation", maybe he will comment...:rolaugh:

Here's my car with HR 25MM on the back only. Suspension is stock. Wheels have been chrome plated.

I have the H&R spacers on my Street Serpent. It is a hubcentric spacer and I was very impressed by the quality. I went that direction instead of the other offerings as they do not require you to remove the wheel hubs to replace the stock studs with the longer competition coupe studs. The only downside is that you do need to cut the stock wheel studs as they protrude past the 25mm spacer. This might not be required on all wheels - but it was required with the stock 5 spokes.

I've got a number of pics in my gallery or I can post some new ones if you like as I love to show off my Street Serpent and actually need new pics with my 5 spokes post CalChrome - BLING, BLING!

Treesnake - why you always gotta temp me with the TT talk? Pretty much decided that I'm going to wait till next winter before doing anything else and just drive and drive this year. That is unless I go to a quaiffe/gears, new motor and trans mounts, and some headers :D. Only thinking about the headers as I am still having some issues getting my current exhaust to fit properly with the opening on the Serpent kit and I certainly don't want a repeat of the paint issues I had with the sills.

You're talking about wheel adapters, not spacers. Big difference.

Not sure exactly what you mean by a "big difference." Here is an actual pic of the spacer itself:

Won't have to cut down the stock studs if using 10 spoke wheels. They were cast with little pockets to accept the excess stud. They must have been cast with spacers in mind. The pockets can be seen in this picture.

So are you saying that hubcentric HR 25mm Wheel Adapters will fit a stock 06 vert?
