I put 3G wheels on my '93 GSX and the lug pattern is right on the money but the back spacing is less than what was on the american racing wheels I used to have... where can I get a spacing plate cause I am going to have tire rub with these wheels and tires at a full turn

I just found out over last weekend that three of my wheels have +35 mm backspace and one has +45. That's got to be bad for something.

I haven't looked up the spec but I'm pretty sure the 3G wheels share the same backspacing as the 1G and 2G wheels actually.
I know the 3G wheels you have ran around on a 1G for a month or so without any issues. -------------------- |

Travis - I have some spacers in my garage that belong to you. 1/4" or 3/8" of an inch, not sure which. You gonna be at the scdc on Sunday? If so, can you bring that rearview mirror? |

Unfortunately I have to work Sun.
 Getting the last one off required pulling a few strings and with that and the vacation last week, there's no chance that I can swing another Sun swap for awhile.I'll check to see if Xian or Eric are heading there though and pass the rearview along with them. -Travis -------------------- |
