BenP1977 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Ive searched for Germany spacers, eBay spacers etc and it's not coming up So can anyone tell me where I can get those spacers from eBay that are ji centric and have the bolts? Also any fitting guides? Thanks Sorry, know you've nearly got this sorted but found these... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250994748634?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoryK Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Sounds exactly like what Tony was saying. Without modifying them, they're going to be a tight fit and recommends pressing them in, or grinding/filing the splines slightly to make them fit easier. Would people be happy with doing this? If so I should be able to sort some prices out Sound like a win to me, I am sure with abit of persuasion they will go in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gstraw Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Silly question but can you pull the bolts through for us when you get them from fensport if you have the tools/know how? That would be much better I think if they are ready to fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakyParts Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 No. As the studs are replacements for the ones currently fitted to your car You need to remove them when the car is off the ground, then either get the studs pressed back in or pull them through before you fit the spacer. Not an easy job according to the post above, but can be done. Other option is to fit bolt on spacers, as these bolt to your standard studs and have new ones you fit the wheel to.

Gstraw Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Lol Naa I get it now. Wasn't sure of the order in which these were installed jo3 u cheeky bas! Well for me I would like 15mm if I can. Can't fensport do us studs that actually fit instead of oversized ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakyParts Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 no one appears to do longer studs that fit the Celica perfectly unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoryK Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Its not to bad of a job, just mucky and time consuming. aslong as you have an old wheel nut that hasnt been capped off you'll be able to do it fine If its a tighter fit, once they are in they arent comming back out anytime soon I guess hehe! Think your gonna start a group buy on these FreakyParts ? 15mm + Studs please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nthnmunky Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Mine went straight in, you just need a simple socket set and I'd have no reservations about recommending them (as I did to J03) as they were really straight forward. No special tools, no press, no grinding or drilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaungt4 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Is there a price for these with the studs ? is it going to be a group buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boynxdoor Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Just a suggestion Guys, Maybe Freaky can grind the stud a little for You all to fit easily... I mean measure the OEM stud spline of the celica gen7 then for freaky to grind the fensports studs slightly to make the fitting less agony...

FreakyParts Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Just waiting on the price back for quantity from my engineer. Poor bloke doesn't know if he's coming or going at the minute!! Not sure if he'd be able to take anything off the studs - without charging more than anything. Speaking to Fensport it's normal with the Celica for them to be a very snug fit anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean measure the OEM stud spline of the celica gen7 then for freaky to grind the fensports studs slightly to make the fitting less agony... That's a lot of unecessary work/responsibility for Stew though mate, & the spline fitment isn't that deep so in effect you'll be virtually grinding down the part that's stopping them from turning in the hole. It'd be a lot better for him just to sell you guys spacers & then source your own studs from Fensport. Someone has to test the water with the Fenny studs & there's no 2 ways about it - putting new studs, even oem ones, into any hub is going to take some work. Mine went straight in, you just need a simple socket set and I'd have no reservations about recommending them (as I did to J03) as they were really straight forward. No special tools, no press, no grinding or drilling. Yeah sorry bud, credit where credit's due Edited February 21, 2012 by J03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD2008 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I'm itching to get spacers front and back. FP = what the deal on the group buy, any update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakyParts Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 If I can order 10 spacers (5 pairs) of 15mm hubcentric spacers, I can do them for £50.00 delivered. I've just received stock of 10 spacers (5 pairs) of 27mm bolt on spacers, they're £70.00 delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreakyParts Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Doesn't include the price of the new studs no, but it's still cheaper to order direct from Fensport, as otherwise it means paying more to get them from me According to the guy at Fensport, these are the same studs as are included with the ebay Germany ones, so should fit with a little pursuasion.
