    New Rims Hitting Break Calipers please help!

    I didn't know about this, I'm planning on taking it to a shop to do this anyway but not sure if they have this specialist equipment, what do you exactly mean by specialist equipment?

    Perfect thank you I will take a look!

    New Rims Hitting Break Calipers please help!

    Hi, it's not possible to do that because the mounting surface of the new rims is completely flat. There is no slot or pocket for the studs to tuck under the new rims. I'm currently trying to find out what size studs I need, if I'm unable to I will just order the new spacers and take the car to...

    D40 Wheel Stud Sizes? Need to put longer wheel studs!

    Hi, I need to order new wheel studs for my Nissan Navara 2006 D40. Does anyone know how long the stock wheel studs are? A place in Germany is telling me this: Rear 40mm: https://spurverbreiterung.de/de/product_info.php?info=p27711_raendelbolzen-m12x1-25-typ-r2g---l--32---70-mm.html - Knurl...

    I'm looking to put on a set on 20mm spacers all around and looking to purchase longer wheel studs. This seems like a safer option to me because I won't have to saw off the existing wheel studs to fit something like that in the photo you posted. The thing is, the rims are flat on the back...

    Also is it OKAY to put 17mm spacer on the front of the car only? Do you think it will look weird, and most importantly is it safe or should I put spacers in the back too? I know most of you aren't a fan of spacers but as you can see I don't really have a choice here! This car will be driven 15...

    Thank you for the feedback. Rims and tyres were purchased from separate stores online so they are saying we can't return it because we already mounted tyres on them. I live in a small place in Europe we don't have any shops like this so everything has to be ordered online out of the country...

    New Rims Hitting Break Calipers please help!

    Thank you for the advice, I have looked it up and we have a small claims court procedure in the European Union. We are still going to try and see if it will work with the spacers because we really like the rims but if it doesn't I will definitely file a form for the small claims court. I have...

    They said I can't ship them back as I have already installed tires on them... if the spacers don't work I will put more pressure on them to provide me with some kind of refund or solution.

    Also wanted to mention it's not really the offset that is the problem. It's the way the rim is designed (I checked the original rims have spokes going more outwards and have a hollow area on the other side which allows caliper clearance). I have done hours of research and others have also said...

    On this forum or another one can't remember, someone had the same issue and the tire place gave him the same advice! Looks like it's something that's done frequently but it's not a route I am willing to take! My plan is to put minimum spacer as well, I think 20 mm will do the trick because I can...

    Yes I have the Thai build, VIN starts with MNT. I am also guessing that we might need about 20mm spacer. But to measure I found online you can stack washers onto the studs to try to figure out how much distance you need. Spacers are legal here but you need to have fender flares (tires aren't...

    Hey everyone! I have a Nissan Navara D40 2006. I just purchased new rims and tires and mounted them on the back of the Navara, they look great! However when trying to mount the front they are hitting the break calipers! I really had no idea this was a problem with these cars. I thought the 0...

    265/70/17 and zero offset wheels? Will it work?

    Looks great! Does anyone know if I need to purchase new lug nuts for these kind of rims or can I use the original ones that came with the car? I'm looking to order these...

    265/70/17 and zero offset wheels? Will it work?

    I understand, the Diesel Navara feels a little underpowered for me already. But I just installed a 2.5" lift and I really can't wait to put on bigger tires and rims :)))) The stock ones just aren't doing it for me. :/ Yes I also read it's about 30 mm. I currently have 255/65/17 on 17x7 inch...
