I ordered some spacers from Bora a few months ago and just recently took them to a shop to be installed. They do not fit to either the wheel or the hub (fit too loose on the hub, and too tight on the wheel). Bora confirmed they were built to spec (based on their records) and that they have sold many spacers to owners of LC200's but I am the first buyer for a model year 2021.
The spacer in question is a 3/4" and I knew based on information here that the studs would need to be trimmed. Based on the spacer to hub fit (loose) we did not trim the studs or try to complete the install. Did confirm that my studs would require trimming as they stuck out quite a bit. The mechanic doing the install drives a 2018 LC and checked the fit on his, and he commented that the wheel studs were shorter and would not need to be trimmed to install on the same factory wheels. This got me thinking maybe there are changes to the 2021 model year that were not published?
Does anyone out there with a 2021 have spacers installed? If so, who made them and how do they fit?
Anyway the spacers are being shipped back, so Bora can confirm the specs... They seem very interested in making the situation right, so I am not worried about that. But I am curious if this is a model year issue or a bora issue.
