Hey, guys. How many mm would you suggest for spacers for my specific wheel set. I've got OZ Racing Superleggera 16" x 7 , 5x100 with centering caps to fit 54.1, ET35, tires 205/50. Car is not lowered and I am not planing on it any time soon.

Screw looks, they're a set of Superleggera alloys! I'd love them even if they were more sunken in. However, if it was me, I'd do a 10 or 15mm hubcentric spacer and be happy.

You guys would balk at my current wheels, only the Titanic on 14" steelies is more sunk.

You guys should see my current wheels, only the Titanic on 14" steelies is more sunk.

I've been told numerous times they are indeed an awesome set of wheels (just 14.6 pounds a rim). Which is good considering I've got the small engine. Even tho I am not their biggest fan ( I like 5 spoked wheels ) I bought them with the car and I am stuck with them with no plans for a change any time soon. So I might as well do something about the sunken in look and get some spacers, right?
