Lowering Spring and Spacers

[Prefon10gen]

Hello everyone, I have a 2021 10gen sport hatch, and I’m wanting to get Eibach Sportline springs but don’t know what spacer size to get on stock wheel size without rubbing. I’ve seen 20mm but if anyone can confirm the same setup? Are EBay spacers worth it? Thanks for the help!

Well stock wheels are 50 offset so a 20mm would get u to 30 so you should be fine I would run 20 or 15mm

Thanks! Just ordered 2x20mm. Went the ebay route. Top reviews so hopefully it’s good. Seemed like it, haven’t had issues yet with good reviews!

Please let me know how those spacers worked out for you--and which product you got. I'm looking at a BBK upgrade, and I'll likely need 20mm spacers to make my OEM (18" x 8") wheels compatible. I'm concerned about the original hub studs protruding beyond the spacers, like this:

You'll be fine with the Garageline 20mm or 25mm ones. It might be an issue if you get 10 or 15mm.

I got mine off eBay, made with the same materials and specs of about every spacer made just, $35 instead of more than twice the price. Hub centric, T6 6061 Billet Aluminum Alloy (minimum), 10.9 heat treated stud. find forged if tracking car for extra strength and heat dissipation. But I found some good videos on YouTube that explained that t6 anodized and heat treated 10.9 stud is very strong.

20mm spacers from eBay worked perfectly. No issues. Torque to 100lbs instead of 80. Fitment with stock wheels was spot on. Wheel had “space” for longer studs but no grinding at all. No issues. Straight forward! Done in maybe 1 hour alone “and a 4 year old”.

These were shipped and delivered within 2 days (Ohio). Here’s a rear view.

I accidentally ordered 25mm spacers, but it turned out that's exactly the right size so the original wheel studs don't protrude past the spacers. Neither the OEM wheels nor my Motegis have indents to accommodate protruding studs, so a 20mm spacer wouldn't be thick enough. My tires definitely exceed the fender lips, and I'm watching out for any rubbing when the suspension fully compresses.

I definitely have room for Brembo calipers now. I haven't pulled the trigger on that purchase yet.

I think I'm getting used to the look.

 

[Prefon10gen]

Oh, yea, I have OEM wheels which accommodate with indents for longer studs it was maybe a quarter inch poking out. Glad they worked out for you! Would like to see the Brembos on your build
