Wheel Spacer Needed HELP Please.

[JRWRITER]

So, long story short, i got some 2010+ GT500 Black Replica's really cheap.
Just realized i got one of them that are supposed to go on a 1999-2004.

So i will need a wheel spacer.

THIS IS THE ONE I HAVE:




THIS IS WHAT I NEED:



Doing some quick math (Maybe I'm just retarded)
45 Millimeters - 25 Millimeters = 2 Centimeters
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

So all i would need is a 1 inch spacer?

If my calculations are correct, where can I buy (1) single spacer? And where can I find a 2 centimeter spacer, I cant find it. They only sell them in pairs..... Thanks


Appreciate any responses.

2nd hand from a guy is the only way to find 1. But its stil going to be slightly different and off balance. If you got them that cheap, spend the $ and get a 4th that's the same size IMO. Better safe then sorry

Your absolutely right, I'll just keep the one I have now as a Spare.
I would never want to ride around with a donut.

I'm pretty sure the 99-04 wheels stick out further on our cars rather than tuck in... so a spacer would make it worse

This is true. You can see it in the specs in the OP. The wheel you have has less backspacing than one for an S197. Adding a spacer will give you even less backspacing. The spacer will move the wheel in the wrong direction.

Oh wait just read this a bit closer.... dude buy the one wheel you need... take it from someone who has lost a wheel at decently high speeds because of general stupidity don't screw around with wheels and tires
