Thinking of changing my rimstock alloys on s2 k series, but seems you need wheel spacers for rears if you fit exige y type spider alloys, Cant even get aftermaket rims without using spacers.
Not sure i like idea of a 20mm thick alloy rim holding my rear wheels on.?
anyone used them.?

I've always been very suspicious of them personally.

Hub centric spacers are fine, not cheap but if you have to use a spacer then this is the type to use.

I have used hubs enteric spacers before, get some quality items from someone you trust and there should not be an issue.

Been using these for years with no issues both on the road and track:

So have I - No issues - actually make popping the wheels on and off easier, having studs to slide the wheels onto, instead of the OEM nuts.
