Following on from this, can you get 10mm spacers?
I've currently got 3mm spacers which is good with my 285/50-20 road biased tyres on Stormers. I'm in hell trying to decide on replacements, torn between sticking with the same size but limited AT type tyres, or going to a different size.
I really don't want 30mm spacers on but am thinking somewhere around 5-10mm might be enough if I went with say a 275/50-20 tyre (which would let me get Pirelli AT+, Cooper Discoverer A/T3, etc.)
Finding a tyre that is 20", has the correct load rating over 111, is an AT and "all-season", and likely won't foul is a 'mare!
(thought I'd solved the problem by getting dibs on a new set of 19"'s with AT+ tyres but family circumstances mean I can no longer pick them up so back to square one.)Cheers,
Gareth

These are 21's fitted with 30mm spacers from Terrafirma, supplied by Frogsisland 4x4 - great service, thanks guys!!
Steering feel seemed understandably VERY odd at first, now been driving for a week and it feels perfectly normal again, all re-torqued and perfectly smooth now.
So far so good...will keep an eye (ear!) on wheel bearings going forwards.

The old girl is on her third engine...
* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)

Just for your info, Land Rover Passion (.it) has developed 20mm spacers.
Personally have mine fitted since 100K km, made front wheel bearing after 75K km with spacers
My advise is to closely consider your rims width, more than 8,5J (ET53) with 30mm spacer is the limit for the front axel, getting more and you will out of the wheel arches - Easy-Lift suspension module 4.0

- Full underbody protections
- Tree/Rock sidebars
- Prospeed roofrack & ladder
- Compressor guard
- Raised Air Intake

Spacers
hi I have 2 pairs of spacers 5mm and 10mm sat in my shed. (the 5mm may be 3mm i'll check)
I had 25mm spacers on my disco looked amazing but front wheel bearings didn't last more than 18 months its the speed bumps that kill them.
pm me if your interested in the spacers.
