    Rather than buying some it is possible to have my own machined at my works tool room to what ever width i need (17mm width iirc to fit v6 Brembos behind vts wheels)
    My main questions are

    What is the best type of spacer to have made?
    Does anyone have a pic of these that will help me to show the tool room exactly what i want, and even better still does anyone have measurements of these ie all the different diameters?
    What would be the most suitable material that peoples spacers are made out of?
    Or would it be better to just buy some and have them machined down at my tool room.

    Cheers in advance a Matt

    can't advise as which would be better, but if no one else replies i have 20mm hubcentrics(that bolt to hub then wheels to them. not the longer bolt kind) so can get most measurements you want
