Are H&R 5mm spacers hubcentric?
My big brake kit needs 3mm to clear my wheels. The question is I want to get either a 3mm or get a 5mm if it was hubcentric. H&R doesnt have 3mm so a 5mm is what I will get from them. They are $55.00 plus shipping. are the H&R hubcentric? If they are it will be worth the extra cash. Or I can get a no name 3mm and some centering rings. What would you all do? Thanks in advance, AL

Edit: I just called H & R and according to the guy there, with the 5mm, there should still be a bit left over from the wheel hub. So even though the spacer is not hub centric, the wheel itself can remain hub-centric because it will still latch onto the car's hub.
PHML, did you find this to be true with yours?

I run 5mm spacers on my back wheels to give me a +40mm offset instead of a +45mm offset. I have ran them for about 9 months now without any issues. A guy told me at the wheel place that up to 5mm spacer is ok to run, anything more, you will need longer studs. My cheepie 5mm spacers aren't hubcentric, but there is still enough space on my hubcentric rings for the wheel to mount to.

Thanks for the confirmation.
