>>Does any one have a source for wheel spacers (need 10 mm) and extended >>bolt kits/wheel lugs to fit our Vanagons? Chris, I bought the extended bolts for my front wheels from the local wheel repair shop (Regina Wheel Works) were I had my Audi rims refinished. They also had nuts for the back studs. I bought the longer rear studs from Ben Tan BenTbtstr8@aol.com. The four 1/2" (12.5mm) spacers were made from aluminum by a local machine shop (Pino Machine Shop). I brought in the wheel I was going to use and asked them to match the back mounting surface. I then glued the spacers to the back surface of the rim. Everything worked out fine. Good luck, George '85 Westfalia |
