The FL5 Civic Type R Wheel Spacer Reference Thread

[Chilly613]

Regarding the Bonoss spacers, I'm trying to understand the pricing of these spacers. On Bonoss's website, it looks to be be priced at $131.99 (for the 20mm version) a piece. So ordering for 4 comes out to ~$527.96.

But then their ebay seller account lists "4X 20mm Hubcentric 5x120 Wheel Spacers for Honda Civic Type R FL5 2023 2024 2025" which I believe is a package of four 20mm spacers and it's priced at only $253.64.

What are you all paying for the Bonoss spacers?

On their website price is for a pair, not for a single spacer, so you would order 2, not 4.

Thanks! My impatient ass didn't bother reading that.

I red some posts or comments from other forums where people said spacers are for temporary, until they purchase actual aftermarket wheels. This make me hesitant to why even wate $$$ on spacers, if going to be temporary. Anyone have experience with spacers on for years and still have no issues?

As long as you keep the spacers torqued and you buy high quality ones from a reputable company there is nothing wrong with spacers. I’ve had mine for over two years and absolutely no issues.

Because my cheap ass can't afford new rims even though I've been contemplating them for years

Saw an FL5 yesterday with OEM wheels flush with the fenders and it looked amazing. Then I found this thread. Appreciate everyone posting what they did with pics.
It seems like 20 front and 25 rear is a touch too much for what I want so I think Im going to try with 15mm Front and 20mm Rear.

Spacers may be temporary for them, but does that apply to you? And even if it does, don't you want desired fitment until you buy aftermarket wheels? If people don't like spacers, that's fine, but you should pressure test what people are saying and why. As I've stated on numerous occassions, if you run them responsibly, you shouldn't encounter issues.

I've had spacers on my car for going on 3.5 years, zero issues. And if given the opportunity, I would do it again. I really like the stock wheels. They suit the car perfectly. My one complaint, is I wish they were forged and I wish they were lighter.

anyone got a working code for the Bonoss website? $60 shipping is a kick in the ass

Look for their eBay page, I think they sell them cheaper there than their own website, but there is a code on their site that takes like $30 off. They're also being shipped from China, so that's why the shipping is a little high.
