Spacers dont fit!!
Hi guys, Im switching over from Rota P45R to Enkei NT03. The offset is practically the same as my Rotas. Rotas were +30 and the Enkei's are +27. So I was going to use the same spacers I have on my Rotas for the Enkei's but they don't fit. The spacers are just the ones you slide into the rim and onto the rotor. Is there a reason they don't fit, do different rims have different sizes for wheel spacers?
If I need new spacers, what is a good set up to get for the new Enkie's I have. I don't really want to have to get something too expensive.

Well I just tried putting them on without the spacers and it doesn't fit over the brembo brakes. I know for the back I don't need them but the front is definitely an issue.
The exact size I got is 18X9.5 E27.

Here some images to show. The spacer doesn't fit inside the wheel.


cursedsm perhaps your wheels have a more positive offset, all I know is that my rims don't clear the brembos and neither did my Rotas.

check to see what bore sizes the rota and enkeis are. typically, the majority of aftermarket wheels are 73-73.1mm bore so its weird that your rotas fit, but the enkeis dont. those are hubcentric spacers you have there so check to see if your new enkeis have hubcentric rings in them. if they did, the raised lip and hub ring would have the same evo hub bore, hence not being able to fit. could be as simple as that.
