Lexus SC430 :: Finding Rims With More Offset Instead Of Spacer?
I really like the look of cars with 25mm/35mm spacers with stock wheels and tires. But instead of using spacers, are there wheels with proper offsets to achieve the same result?

Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Cruise Control Intermittent Failure - Larger Rims And Tires
I have a Ford F150, 2003. I replaced the switch above the master brake cylinder just a few months ago soon after I bought the truck. I put 17" rims and new tires on my truck and now my cruise control works intermittently. It worked fine before then.
Can there be a connection between the intermittent failure of the Cruise and the larger rims and tires? I know my speedometer is off by about 4 MPH at 55 but I expected that.
Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2003 Echo / Snow Tires On 15 In Rims Or Snow Tires On 14 In Rims?
I purchased a used 2003 Echo last week. The all season tires are on 15 inch rims. I would like to buy snow tires for this car. The question is - snow tires on 15 in rims or snow tires on 14 in rims? I understand that 15 inch rims was an option selected on the original purchase. Without this option, the car would have had 14 inch rims.

I have a 03 Excursion 6.0 that just developed a transmission leak between the transmission and transfer case. It appears to be the transmission because the transfer case fluid is at the top. I started to notice transmission fluid leaking in my driveway. I have not had any driving issues with the transmission but I am not driving until I correct the problem. If this is the rear transmission seal, how had is it to change this seal? Must I remove the spacer between the transfer case and 5r110 tranny? Any special tools needed?
My temps have stayed at or below 150 if I recall. My fluid is slightly low in the transmission at about 134 operating temperature. The fluid is clean, red and has no burnt odor. My transfer case is topped off. Fluid ran out the fill plug when I removed it.
There is an aluminum square spacer than necks down. It is about 6" long between the transmission output on the excursion and the transfer case. The leak I see is where that spacer meets the transfer case. I see enough for the fluid to leak onto the cross member and to the driveway. I estimate that I have lost less than a 1/2 quart of fluid over a couple weeks.

I replaced the radius arm bushings on my truck about a year and a half ago and about 6 months later I found that the nylon spacer on the driver's side cracked in half and only half remained on the truck so I replaced it (under warranty) and I found the same thing again today. I torqued it to factory specs and the passenger's side is fine. What gives?
View 4 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Rear Spacer From 15mm To 8mm
I have never put spacers on any of my cars so when I did to my R a while ago it was kind of a new thing for me. At first from what I heard it seemed to be a performance mod but then I started to perceive that it was for looks and that if you were performance oriented you would not run spacers, or at least on the R? A bit confused. Anyway I have rear adjustable control arms to put on now and I figure to correct the extreme negative camber (with the aftermarket lowered suspension) I would need to run a smaller spacer or I would have major rubbing issues.
When I first bought the spacers I bought 15mm H&R spacers for the rear and 8mm for the front. I never put the front on since i realized it would probably rub a lot. So now i am thinking of putting the 8mms in the back. (15mm spacers would go on sale btw, SF bay area if your interested). Rather put 10s but already have the 8s. Also, i am going to go find right sized polished bolts, since thats what I originally had but had to switch to unpolished longer bolts (which was what came with my spacers order). Also, I've noticed different driving characteristics with the 15mm spacers on. Taking a sharp turn hard, if i let off the gas, I will fishtail a little bit (as much a fishtail possible for an awd car)...i am attributing this to the spacers as i believe this was not happening before i had them on. Maybe the 22mm sway bar too? Its fun, but i can tell it is not the optimum set up for performance.
