So H&R Has No 20mm spacers in stock???

So i ordered the 20mm drm spacers from AWE Tuning...After a week of trying to get the guy to get me a tracking number which he never got, i got an email saying

"Hi Sergey,
I apologize for the delays. We have had a hard time getting any information about the order from H&R. Turns out the reason for that is that they do not have the spacers in stock. They never notified us of that when we placed the order.The do not have a due date for when they will be back in stock unfortunately. it could be several weeks or longer to be honest."

Really? H&R has no spacers in stock? lol

Have you checked with Lou at Amplified Motorsport? I picked up a set of 4 20MM H&R DRM's from him last month....they were in stock & shipped quick.

Good luck.

We stock them, but have had a hard time getting the DRM's as well. These are made in Germany.. and apparently never enough.

We do have the 20mm DRS (with studs) in stock, if that helps. Most sales have been of the DRS, it's a lot more popular.

You can use the ones for G35 and 350Z.

Spacers are not something you want to compromise on, so wait for the H&Rs. Amplified had them in stock when I ordered mine several weeks ago, so you might want to check them.

Why do you not want to compromise on them?

A spacer essentially acts as a removable extension of your hub. So if the spacer fails, guess what, your wheel falls off. Not saying this would ever happen, but it's personally not something I want to take a chance on. Also, cheaper spacers will have problems with vibration, as the tolerances have to be absolutely perfect to avoid vibration.

I don't mean to scare anybody, I think spacers are perfectly safe when properly installed. They use them in various race applications all the time, and if it's good enough for that, then good enough for the street.
