I'm not a fan of spacers, i have a cheap set of steel 7" wide rims which push the tyres out a little.

thanks for your input gary ,begining to think that the suzuki peeps outthere had all gone on holiday , the reason for wanting to use spacers is that i dont want to muck up the gearing by useing wide wheels ,

The gearing is only changed by a bigger tyre size not buy the width of the actual  wheel
