Hey Undy thanks for the work with those. I've got AFS 10.5s and am running 315 nittos. I'd like to run BFG DRs so I'll take a set of the spacers.

If the AFS wheels(I have the 10.5"s too) are truely hub as well as lugcentric,we are OK. Keep me posted and on your list. Rob

That's wrong! Mustang wheels are hub centric. I believe the taper on the lug nuts is to keep the steel studs from galling the aluminum wheels. Whatever the reason, the wheels themselves are hub centric.

That said, Undy, put me down for a set of the 7/32 spacers. You accepting paypal? Check? Postal money order?

Any reason aluminum was chosen for the piece?
I understand it is lighter, but is thermal expansion a factor in these hubs like the pulleys and bearing on the engine?
You have steel against aluminum and a brake assembly to create heat.

If you think it isn't significant, I'm satisfied, and I'll take a set.
Put me on the list.

Thanks for your time and effort on these.

Thanks for all the interest..

I'm still waiting from admin to approve me selling them on the forum. As soon as I receive approval I'll start taking orders.

Just a question...wouldn't one want the diameter of the spacer to be the same as the face of the hub?

Undy took one of his AFS wheels to the machinist and the guy made the diameter of the spacer the same as the mounting area on the back of the AFS wheel.

Hi all!

Steve has most graciously given me the go ahead to sell the wheel spacers. I know we all will greatly appreciate it. Thanks Steve!! :D

As I mentioned before.. the cost will be $90.00, mailed to your door. I will accept paypal ( please use your checking account, not a credit card, when using Paypal as I'm not registered with Paypal as a business ) I will also take a cashiers check or money order too.

As soon as I receive payment I'll put in the order to the machine shop. I'd like to have a bunch premade but they're just too expensive and it's too risky for me also... so p-l-e-a-s-e be patient. I will provide regular updates from the shop. Email me with all your info ( spacer specs or variances ) including name and shipping address.

My email, including Paypal is: [email protected]

Undy, I just tried to email you at the above address, but it was returned as "failed". I'll try a PM.

Undy. You rule!!! Those look great. I definitely want a pare and am sending you an e-mail. I am also going to order my wheels tomorrow. Thanks for all your work. Just think you don't have to keep checking your lugs now.

Undy, one questions, these are made specifically for AFS '03 cobra replica wheels? ... will they fit their 18" variety as well?

i'm hastling with getting either 17" or 18" AFS rims...

351MachOne,
The spacers were made for a stock 03 wheel as a template. The AFS 10.5s are an exact copy of the factory ones thus the spacers are compatable with either.. hope this helps..
