Default WTB Wheel Spacers

I need 1" spacers, preferably bolt-on. They're just so damned expensive it's hard to justify spending $450 on a set of four...

Technically, the offset change for '86 951s was 21mm front and 28mm rear.

I bought some 17mm from Suncoast including all hardware for 200 a pair. Not cheap but the ones I have are just spacers and I couldn't find any lug bolts long enough to be safe.

Have you tried VERTEX AUTO (renns site sponsor)? When I did my switch I bought the 1" spacers (bolt-ons) for $125.00per pair. Great product/finish/fit. I would highly recommend them. CNC'd Aluminum.

Hey this is great! I hope you're referring to these here:

I can justify $300/set...

What needs to be machined if used up front? The center, to fit around the hub cap?
