looking for a place that sell spacer for bolt pattern 4x100, installed my rims and the snout doesn't allow me to put my center cap on, I have about an inch from my wheels to the edge of my fenders and I measured that I would need about 1/2inch to clear and allow me to put the center cap so bottom line would need a spacer for a 4x100 and thickness from 1/2 to 3/4 any help is appreciated

to use that thick of a spacer, you will also need longer studs or lugbolts

forget ebay , try your local golf gti tuners , or do an internet search .

dont risk shoddy ebay goods . (unless research proves them )

lots of proven manufacturers on golf 4x100 platform . h+r , eibach , etc.
