Thanks to the advice from Will at Gad tuning and a speedy delivery from Chris at CM Wheels I received and fitted 15 mm spacers all round today, let me know what you guys think?

Looks good Martyn, ive fitted 25mm spacers to my car, it gives it a wider meaner look, all tracked up accordingly

25mm have you got a picture mate? I called Will at Gad, as I was at the meet last Sunday 2nd May, and loved the way his motor was sitting, so I went along with same.

Hope this shows wheel sitting out a bit ?

That is sitting real nice mate

Thanks mate , i find it handles better now as it has a wider trackbase , too many people put these on and leave it not realising you have to have toe in toe out and camber adjusted to compensate otherwise your tyres will suffer

25mm! That will have all sorts of impact on scrub radius and wheel bearings.

Funny enough the scrub radius is fine and ive asked my Garage to check bearings and they in good order too and ive had those spacers on a long time now and no ill effect even on tyre wear so i suppose ive just been lucky i guess ?

there are loads of folk on the Chrysler 300c forum been running 25mm spacers with 22" rims for many years with no issues at all

Yes if you put them on properly and do the relevent adjustments after then no issues, i use the bolt on one's and use existing wheel bolts on them, much stronger and safer than the other type which can cause problems fitting and lining up

agreed paul , I will be fitting 25mm spacers and 22's on my 300c next week , they are bolt on design specially imported for the job

Agree, the H&R DRA application ones are superb, also much easier to fit than bolt through, just make sure all the mounting surfaces are clean
