    without the spacer you'll be worse off in every way.

    put the original wheel on with the spacer, then use a ruler and guage how much space you have to play with on either side.
    thanks lad i've an understanding nw of what it means old wheels are sold so Hmm..........

    Depends on a million things really, camber, tyre sizing etc! Get wheels around a width and offset which is proven to work and make them fit nicely yourself. If the offsets are weak, use some spacers.

    spacers lower the et of the wheel, just remember that.
    i makes it easy to compare two wheels with differant offsets while using spacers.
