thats something completely different...look at the spacer you should put on vs that one...the one you are putting on is only 5mm...look how thick that one is in the link givin inside the link you gave

if there is even a tiny defect in the spacer it leads down a path of pre-worn tires, noisy suspenison, broken parts. its just not good. i wouldn't trust an ebay spacer. i love ebay, i get parts off of it all the time. but its such a tiny part to let mess up so much stuff.

I dont like the idea of using spacers at all. Does the rim you have come in a smaller offset?

Rubbin is racing [/days of thunder]

Spacer comes loose and shears off your wheel stud. Seen it happen on a stock caddy. Find another way.

Find the correct offset or get the Offset Rear Suspension Tension Rods.
