Best spacers?
Just wanted to see what the general consensus was on who makes the best spacers. I have come across three brands:
- Eibach - H&R - Rogue Engineering Which is best, and why? |

What would you be basing this on?
And how many of the voters have first hand experience with all three?

I'm completely relaxed.
I'm also looking into getting some 12mm spacers. However I think this is just like a pissing contest. Its going to be the name that people have heard the most since very few actually own one or have seen all three. This makes the poll pretty useless.

I agree with some of your comments... but consider this. Even if folks haven't owned all three, you'll be able to see which of the three brands is most widely tried and tested. If 25 people say they have the Rogue Spacers (and think they are best) then I'd be far more likely to buy those, as they are proven. Make sense?

Where did you guys get your spacers from? I'm looking for a set of H&R 10mm -- not sure where to get from, and where to get the bolts.

I have H&R, they were the best price. Spacers are spacers though, it's a piece of metal wedged between the wheel and hub, I don't see any benefits in choosing one over the other. Although the hub centric ring is a must I think they all have that.

spacers are spacers. just make sure you get the hub centric kind. i ran no name spacers and they worked fine. cheaper too. they are all machine th e same way. its the marketing that makes them cost more.
