Help with modifying - Paulxleah - 04-01-2016
Hi all sorry but yet another newbeeee lol I'm thinking of putting a dimma kit on mine but im STUCK as I don't know how to make the wheels wider with spacers does anyone know were I can get spacers for this and recommend a alloy wheel which is wide I can't afford dimma wheels
Can anyone help??????
RE: Help with modifying - Mattcheese31 - 04-01-2016
Spacers are widely available, the Dimmas had a wider track iirc though, someone else may know more about that lol.
Pcd 108 for the spacers in case you didn't know
RE: Help with modifying - welshpug - 04-01-2016
do not use spacers to make it dimma width, thats a bodge and ultimately not safe.
if you can't afford the wheels I doubt you can afford to fit the kit properly
RE: Help with modifying - bashbarnard - 04-01-2016
The kit its self is about 2.5k plus the wheels, plus the wishbones plus aathe expense of doing it. I think welsh pug might be right if you cant afford the wheels the likelihood of you affording the rest is slim. However if you can. I would advise just buying everything properly and not spacing that wide.
RE: Help with modifying - Eeyore - 04-01-2016
yeh if you are using spacers youre doing it wrong. with spacers you space the wheel out from the pivot point which will lead to crap handling and safety issues. proper dimmas have wide track wishbones and beams etc.

They would have to be some truly mahoosive spacers, and far from safe. As per the advice given above, I'd say if you're going to do it, do it properly.
RE: Help with modifying - Paulxleah - 04-01-2016
Thanks to all the advice I'll take it on board cheers
