JUST FOR MEASURING. DO NOT DRIVE CAR WITH THESE PARTS INSTALLED.
Buy a hand full of 1/2" washers from Home Depot and use those.
- Remove the wheel
- Place 1 or 2 washers on each wheel stud
- Install wheel on car
- Lower car to ground (weight on wheels)
- Firmly tighten lug nuts
- Check wheel and tire for clearance
- Remove or add washers until you have the clearance you need
- Remove wheel
- Remove washers and note how many were needed
- Measure height of washer stack
- That is the size spacer you need
I recommend putting the car on some 2" high x 12" wide pieces of wood planking for the fit check. This extra clearance allows you to het your head under the front of the car to check clearances.
