			The spacers are made of high strength aluminum.  The ones I stock for
BMW, Audi, Mazda, etc are hubcentric units made by H&R (actually only the
8mm and larger sizes are hubcentric).  Make sure you purchase the longer
lug bolts with the spacers...the most popular spacers for BMW are 15mm
thick and require M12x43mm lug bolts.  A set of 4 is much cheaper than
$350.  SD
