Does any one know where I can get 1" wheel spacers for my SJ413
I don't want to pay $200 US in freight from Rocky Road.

Trademe have some. But they are not legal for road use unless they support the rim. i.e. the wheel cannot only hang on the wheel studs, but must be supported through the centre of the rim as well.
I know this beacause one of my work vans failed a WOF on it last week. It needs to lvvc with wheel spacers, and the certifier told me what he wanted to see to give it cert (still going to $280 + gst though

).

We have also found out through a certifier, that the maximum width allowable for a bolt on spacer/hub adapter is 27mm.
so don't rush out and buy anything bigger than 1".
there was a guy on TM a while back making them to order. I think he was from Fielding, but I haven't been able to see him on there lately.
Hopefully someone may know

follow this link for the guy in Feilding,
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 477711.htm just remember the wider you go from the hub the more presure you put on the bearings and seals,have you considerd a negative offset rim and a smaller spacer?

doesn't make a difference whether the offset is achieved by spacers or rim offset to the bearings...

I all ready have -28 offset 15x8 rims for my muds and I just want to get some more clearance between the tire and spring.
1" spacers will also allow me to run 31x10.5 Ats on my standard 15x7 alloys.
I have asked a couple of guys on trade me in regards to spacers but no one seems to do 5x139.7 Pcd for a Suzuki

Trailgear only seem to make spacers for Toyota 6 Stud as per their site . Will PM Jafa though.
