Just need some advice from people on here who have spacers fitted to the front of their cars.
I've just had a garage fit my new suspension and spacers for me and he said to me that he's not all that convinced about the safety of the front spacers.
I bought some Eibach 12mm spacers for the back and 8mm for the front along with longer bolts for the front and back too.
When I looked at them prior to fitting the 12mm spacers had a large inner lip that extended out about 20mm and the front ones had a much smaller lip of about 3mm.
The garage said that the rears are great as the wheels have something to hold onto but the front spacers lip is so small that the wheels are not held into place with the spacers fitted and that its only the bolts that are holding the wheels in position.
Having never fitted spacers before I cant imagine what he's saying so I thought I'd get some advice on here as I know a lot of you guys have spacers fitted.
Are they safe?
These are the ones I have fitted on the front...
