wheel spacers
off subject as my rear tyres are starting to hurt. i have in my possesion a set of 4 hub centric wheel spacers
all 5x112 or 5x100 @ 5mm thick with a center bore of 57.1mm.
Guess what they dont fit onto my T3.
Yeh yeh u probably already knew that.
So question is what is center bore size of T3;
spacers sit flush on the recessive lip of rear hib where it meets the brake drum. Sit flush on lip not brake drum face.
And wont even clear the grease cap on the front, no i havent taken it off as why bother they wont fit the back so not much point proceeing further.
So should i get the center bored out a little more?
I am guessing about 2-3mm? probably less.
Or should someone want to buy them for their vehicle??

Gotta be somewhere nearer to 61mm neat. Brickyard suggests 66mm so as to clear the front grease cap..
Guess i will have to buy a set of callipers..
Know anyone i OZ that does spacers of same quality for reasonable dollars?
