Where can I buy 25mm spacers from? Looked on ebay no luck? Anyone have any for sale?

Skip

Most will have 21mm and 27/28mm, and many other sizes, but no 25mm (1") per se. What year/model and wheel combo are you trying to fit? Someone may be able to share their experience with an alternate spacer size.

Good Luck!

I have a 86 951. And my friend has 25mm spacers on his 86 951 front and rear with no rubbing at all

Cool, what wheels with what offset are you trying to fit?

In most cases, if you are using factory wheels with factory tires you can run 21mm on front and 27mm on rear without rubbing. 27mm factory spacers are rare and expensive. 21mm spacers are relatively common and inexpensive. A popular option is to use a 21mm spacer on all four wheels, then add another 7mm spacer to the rear if you fit it (not all cars can safely do this - depends on ride height, tire type, alignment settings, etc). If you use a type like H&R DRM spacers, the OE studs may be used. To use slip-on spacers, like the factory type, you'll need longer studs.

Also, because of the uniqueness of the 944 front hub, most commercially available spacers will not fit the front without machining.

Good Luck!

I just got themm off of ebay for 750 shipped. 1500 miles on the tires.

(ebay ref is 17x7/17x9 Porsche OE Technology wheels) For those, I would recommend a 27mm spacer front and rear. You can still get away with the aforementioned 21/27 setup, but the fronts can afford to go out a bit more since they are still only 7" wide.

That was an EXCELLENT buy, BTW. Congrats!

I recently bought the 21mm and 28mm H&R Drm spacers from Paragon.(Thanks again Chuck!!) To my surprise, they already had the 1/4in. bevel already machined out!! Great prices too!

Skip do you think 28mm front and back will work fine? If so hook me up with the special rennlist/repeat customer discount.

It cost me $35 to get my new front spacers machined to get them to fit over the bevel and the hub. If I could have bought them from Paragon new with the machining already done that would have save $.

Skip if you are indeed selling the spacers with the machining already done please advertise this as I would have just bought them from Paragon had I known this.

We put 1.5" spacers on Campeck's (Ashton) car all the way around with no problems. The car has 16" by 6" in front and 8" in back with 52mm offset C2 wheels. Works great!

$265 shpped to my door. With the hub centric thing on the spacers for a tight fit. Takes 3 to 5 days to make. Does not require any lip to be machined.
