15mm wheel spacers

Just bought a 2017 Camaro 2SS. Where is the best place to buy wheel spacers. Ebay has some for 84.00 for 4 and Eibach has 4 for about 280.00. I don't plan on doing any track stuff with my car just going to shows and cruising. Any thoughts. I plan on keeping the stock rims.

Buy a brand name and not the cheap copy stuff. Eibach are good. You want square 15mm or only in front? On the back are 20mm ok without poke out.

I would buy Eibach or H&R. The Eibachs' are made in Germany by H&R. I have owned all three, Motorsport Tech, Eibach and H&R, I would highly recommend the Eibachs' or the H&R. If you are going with 15mm, you would buy Eibach as H&R does not offer a 15mm for the Camaro. Look up Shock Warehouse and ask Carlos for 10.00 off each pair. Do you have recessed pockets in your wheels between the bolt holes?

I went to their site, looks pretty good but I'm torn because they spell our car "Camero"

That is a buzz kill, but their service was fantastic and I can attest to the quality. They are top notch.

I have a pair of 25mm spacers in the rear and they're a generic brand from eBay. 2 years and zero issues. Only a fool would pay 250-300 bucks for what they are.

That is wrong. H&R do offer 15mm spacer including the German „Teilegutachten“ Expert opinion on a component. And Eibach and H&R are competitors.

25mm wheels spacers poke the wheels to far and doesn't look good

20mm is the sweet spot but you have to cut the studs to do that.

3mm wont notice any differences,

Hey,

We recommend getting some quality name brand spacers. You don't want anything breaking at high speeds.

Contact us with any questions..
