I had to get extended wheel studs when I used 15mm of spacers for itr wheels to fit over my spoon brakes.
Why do you need 30mm? That's a very big amount?
Don't think you need that much to clear your brakes.
What's the offset of your wheels? High?

haha sorry son it was a typo lol 30mm would be a ridiculous amount of clearance haha

ek9cub said:
He only needs 3mm it was a typeo. Wheels are 15"/7" et40 and with 3mm spacers they will clear the wilwoods.

DC2 arms are different, you would have to buy the special arms that Function 7 make which are £££

Not a fan of the bronze parts or rear fog light, otherwise good effort getting it together so quick :nice:
 
I love this you got ben, yellow ek9 steering wheel didnt ya I wanted tht lol
