So, I have new wheels. If I push the bearing all the way in on one side it comes out slightly on the other side. I guess that the hub is built to accommodate a slightly narrower spacer than the spacer, uh, is.
Is this a known problem? The wheels are Vinnie's "one careful owner" unmarked MPC road wars (at least, I think they're road wars - like I said, they're unmarked) and I think I recall hearing some conversation about it but I wasn't paying attention ... are compatible spacers available and where from? I suspect my storm surges may need the same treatment, now I think about it. |

| Yes you get different size spacers, they go up in .1 mm. |

I used to measure my spacers and group them and try one by one.you can do that or
buy one like below, if you are serious.(18 sets in 0.03mm differences.)

Some companies like MST or J&T have been making specialized spacers since 2007~8.
Approximatly, 9.94 and 9.97 are for 110 MPCs. 100mm MPCs are in 10.12ish and 10.09mm (after June 2009)
In fact we have to measure each wheel to be exact. It is time comsuming. |
