Fitting spacers

[DazzerVTR]

One of the hardest things I've done on my car, kid you not.
Anyone any tips? I've given up. I'm trying to fit 10mm spacers to bring my 22et wheels nearer the correct offset.

I cannot align the wheels and the spacer to the hub one or the other keeps fucking up, errrh im so mad x10000000000000000

I did mine piece of piss! i sat down and balanced the wheel on my shins (this leaves both hands free) and adjusted the spacer accordingly while raising my legs to bring the wheel up!

crazy i know, but it worked!

Its just a mission I tried the shin thing but ended up giving me cramp in my right leg lmao then I dropped the bloody wheel on my foot. who needs laurel and hardy when you've Darren and Saxo.

Currently my situation is this, I've Wolfrace octains on my car which are et22 the handling is very sketchy because of this.
I think I need 7mm spacers, if I do will I need longer bolts, I'm using the standard alloy bolts but there seems ample room with the spacer and and wheel but whenever I try and fit the thing the bolt will not byte the hole.

Thinking of getting these, would these make life a bit easier in the long run?

Hmm, never seen them b4, dont see why they wudnt work!

You need at least 18mm of thread to keep your wheels in place securely!

My bolts must be too short will probably order the above, Halfrauds and co want the same amount for four bolts.
