WTB 5mm Spacers

Well, I figured I'd try here before I bought new.

Anyone?

Or leads on good prices?

Thanx

You can get cheapie spacers at auto parts stores that fit several different lug patterns for cheap. They take a bit more effort to center properly, so I prefer getting some that fit snugly around the hub (H&Rs are nice), made specifically for the MINI.

The 5mm spacers shouldn't be too expensive in the grand scheme of things since they don't have the milled hub-centric flange.

I do

I have a pair of used 5 mm spacers that are specific to the MINI 4-bolt pattern. Will sell them to you for $40 (shipping included).

Nope, a pair of two (2). Brand unknown. They are dirty and scratched etc. but who cares since you can't see them anyway.

Sorry, I mis-wrote last night and made the whole thing confusing. I typed "of" instead of "or".

I meant to write, do you have a pair (2 pieces) or 4 pieces?

Just wanted to clarify because I can get FK 4x100 57.1 bores for $40 a pair (2 pieces).

But if you have 4 for $40 that's definitely a deal I don't want to miss out on.

sorry for my mis-communication. That's what I get for asking questions half asleep.

Thanks for responding

BMP / Pro mini used to sell H&R spacers of all dimensions. Good quality but they were not cheap as I recall.

Cr@p I was looking at 57.1 and not 56.1's

I guess I'll look more into the H&R's. EAS has them for a good price.
