In this video, my little brother and make the golf flush by adding on wheel spacers and wheel adapters, along with get the car ready for new brakes. So we installed a set of 15mm wheel spacers up front, and a set of 25mm wheel adapters in the rear.
THIS IS A 100% SAFE MOD, if you install them properly. Make sure you use a proper torque wrench to install your lug nuts on the wheel. It isn’t rocket science, it just takes a few more seconds to do properly.
I’ve had wheel adapters on my Honda, and my older brother has adapters on his Mini. We’ve both had them for awhile now, and we haven’t run into any problems!!

IMPORTANT: Milan you used the wrong lug nuts. Please dont drive with the Golf until you fixed that. There are 2 different types of lug nuts with rounded or conical end. You can see the differenz at 4:10! You could may lose your tires while driving. Sorry for my bad english, i am from germany.

@ebiketester24 8 лет назад

You are also doing it wrong at the rear of the car. Please fix this quickly.

@jaredkain3021 8 лет назад

your scrub radius could now be wrong as you've spaced the front wheels out, unless the aftermarket wheels were the wrong offset and you've now corrected it with the spacers. the rear spacers don't appear to be hubcentric, so that's gonna be dangerous, the studs are now taking the weight of the wheel as opposed to the hubcentric ring as the manufacturer designed.

@aaronm406 3 года назад

Since I have a good understanding of hub bore, I’ve never wanted to get wheels spacers without the hub centric ring/lip.

@bridger911 6 лет назад

Did the back wheels wrong, those lugs you put on for the wheel lugs are supposed to be the lugs that attach the spacer to the hub not the way you did it

@tribaltechno 7 лет назад

love the stance. but if you're using wheel adapters/spacers, make sure they're hub centric, the ones you got on the rear aren't hub centric, the front ones are

what's the different of wheel spacer and wheel adapters?

@SwiftlyGuyver_ 7 лет назад

Those spacers are not a good idea but those are fine adapters fine as they fine true center any. I'm a professional machinist and true up centers all day everyday. I have a set wheel adapters one for the past six years and I've had no problem with them so far. If you can find hub centric spacers or adapters for the exact size hub for the possible two different sized hubs on vehicle then do it. These spacers and adapters are probably just generic meant for more than one type of bolt circles.

@ho11yhood 8 лет назад

I have a mk4 Jetta 2.0 same color as the oem color on your lil bros golf most mods you have done are the same/similar to what I have done i actually just purchased the same exact front 15mm spacers which came with the extended lugs on my car. Thanks for the videos keep them going , if your brother goes any lower in the front I recommend rolling the fenders due to wheels sticking out more and possibly get a hybrid oil pan $80 us dollars and is steel at the bottom of the pan a true life saver.

@milanmastracci 8 лет назад

Hi Milan! I need your opinion about wheel adapters. I'm driving VW Golf mk3, and last week I bought new wheels. Now I need to use wheel adapters to make switch from 4x100 to 5x100, but people telling me that wheel adapters are not really safe. I need your opinion about that, couse you have much more experience with that.

@brendanchennells4649 8 лет назад

that's not the difference between the 2. there both wheel spacers. wheel adapters are actually made to fit a different lug pattern to your car then the existing one.

@brendanchennells4649 8 лет назад

+Joseph Kaufman as a matter of fact the front are not. neither are adapters. the fronts are universal for 2 different patterns. 5x100 and 5x112. the rears are just spacers as well.

@MrSkerz32 8 лет назад

+ Brendan Chennells Exactly! Those are spacers. Just bought a set of spacers for my Jeep for clearance and they are a 5x5 to 5x5 bolt pattern, which states it's a wheel "spacer". You're 100% correct man. But what really got me heated was that they used the nuts that come with the spacer as their lug nut. Those nuts are meant to secure the spacer to the hub, not the wheel to the spacer. That's why vehicles have closed end lug nuts. Supposedly Milan is a car guy though...

@milanmastracci 8 лет назад

How would you use a lug nut on a car that doesn't have studs..?

@MrSkerz32 8 лет назад

That's not what I was saying. You're supposed to use closed end lug nuts for the studs on your spacers, not the nuts that come with the spacer. The nuts that are included are for securing the spacer to the hub. Of course you can't do that with a car that doesn't have studs on the hub but you should have bought true lug nuts because it is 10 times safer.

@hyusama7469 8 лет назад

These kinda mods could really screw up your car and its handling of you don't know what you're doing. First check if they're legal in your country and state. Then find out the oem offset of your car and calculate if you even need wheel spacers in the first place. Best way is to get proper fitting rims in the first place that already have the right offset for your car.

@pcxgam3r576 3 года назад

You need alloy hub spigots that change the fitment of your alloys to match the hub I had to do the same for my e39 alloys to fit a e60 only 2mm diffrence but stopped my wobble from 40mph to 80mph on motorways Find the original hub fitment for your old wheels and your new alloys and find the corresponding spigots They cost virtually nothing but make a big diffrence Its because the 2mm diffrence is quite a lot and when you fit them on your car the alloy can still move so when you tighten up the bolts it pulls it out of centre causing the wobble
