    Yeah they will prob be CNC.

    Can you do a cad file? Im not sure if it will be usable with our progam.

    A drawing with dimentions will prob be enough and just as easy.

    the spacer locates on the hub centre rather then being positioned by the nuts which hold it on. u should also get them wheelcentric, meaning the wheel locates on the spacer.

    when u run aftermarket rims with larger hub bore then the factory wheels, u can run plastic rings which make the wheels hubcentric. just ensures everythign runs true

    And stops you getting wheel wobble at 80kph+ (ie. my mark II) when u got 5mm slip ons on.

    nice and light and well made in the correct Toyota hub size, presumably if you didnt want 20mm you could get someone to turn them down on a lathe?
    I dont suppose you got them off an ebay store that has an easy link for me to find?

    If the studs are properly preloaded (the nuts are done up tightly enough) neither the studs nor the ring take any weight. The studs only take a tensile force. All the reaction forces are applied by the wheel directly to the hub (or wheel->spacer->hub) vice versa.

    The ring serves only to locate the wheel AFAIK.

    The 10mm Hubcentric slipones look the go

    Then just need to get the longer studs

    tell that to the bloke who lost his wheel when running rims that wernt hubcentric on the track with slicks.
    they will move on the hub if given the opportunity

    In regards to bolt on spacers.

    If i was to hypothetically purchase 20mm bolt ons, that are 70mm hubcentric and my soarers hubcentric being 60.1mm would i find any wheel wobble/issues using them on the track if i take my time and be carful bolting them up with tapered nuts?

    Just get hub-centric rings from a tyre shop to suit.

    yep any wheel/tyre place will have or be able to get the correct hub rings

    running a daily let alone a track car without them is asking for trouble
