which wheel spacers? was created by jim
I'm looking for advice on wheel spacers. If I don't go down the route of changing over to steels with et-32 I may consider the blue 40mm spacers jimnybits sell.

Anyone have these on their jim?

I didn't read your original post properly :blush:
40mm spacers may still be too wide, the easiest way to tell is take the wheel off and hold it around 40mm from the hub and look how close the tyre is to the edge of the wheel arch.

Hi Jim
I've fitted the 32mm ones on my 2011 Jimny which has a 50mm lift and is fitted with 205/75/15 Tyres. It made a considerable difference to the stability of mine, particularly in windy highway conditions. Done 30000km with them now and don't seem to have any side effects.
