broken wheel spacer

i have a pair of project kics 15mm bolt on wheel spacers and one of them is useless because one of the studs broke (about half the normal length). not sure who or where to go to to possibly try and buy just one spacer. i tried pounding out that 1 stud hoping i'd be able to replace just a stud but that didn't work either =( anyone know where i might be able to buy just 1 spacer or possibly have one they'd like to sell?

Indeed they do. Follow this link. You will need to change a few things around depending on your wheel center bore, but this will give you an idea.

edit....doesn't like the link...go here:

you could try Touge Factory...I bought from them in pairs but they may be willing to sell individuals. Best bet is to look them up on here and send a pm

Why can't you get the broken stud out? Its been a while since I've had mine off but if I remember correctly you should be able to press the bad one out and a new one in no problem.

BenJ, i'm thinking you're right lol. my hope is that someone is in a similar situation and wants to sell their one haha

sscottttt, i also forgot that not only is one stud sheared, but one of the hubcentric things went in wrong and is now stuck =(

btw, i got these spacers w/ a set of rims so all this was done by the previous owner
