(Needs to be in modifications section really) Most motorfactors and places like halfords sell them. Better to get the proper ofset wheels in the first place. |

you really want to know what the actual wheel 'offset' is for the alloy wheels you are looking to get, think the standard fitment for most Fiesta's is 35mm offset, but someone may correct me on this. the thickness of the 'spacers' vary 3,5 10 15mm common. but be carefull if need thick ones as may also then need longer wheel studs. found this but hav'nt watched it though |

Thats why I said about ofset, I hate using spacers. I only use them on my compomotive rally wheels due to the fact I cant buy another set, plus im only running 3mm front and 5mm back (which will be getting sorted out propeerly ), which is nothing compared to some stupid spacers people run   If I went above 5mm I would be getting the longer studs fitted straight away! |

Just get some the right offset in the first place, so no need to pay more for spacers or bolts. They will sell the right size at halfords etc...but i found the internet to be much cheaper for alloys when you know what you want |
