Am going to buy some 20 mm wheel spacers and it needs to be from Amazon as have a gift card. I can see lots of people on here have bought from Ebay anyone bought any from Amazon and which ones were they?

I wouldn’t mate..Amazon is full of private label, cheap Chinese rebrands that all come from the same factory and that you’d probably pick up for half the price on Ali-express. Seriously though you can’t be assured of the quality in a part you really don’t want to fail! I got these and they are excellent quality, made in Sheffield.

Yip, they are an auto-wholesaler (pro-tec automotive ltd). That will be their online branding for parts made by another manufacturer. Their feedback looks ok though.

Are you determined to buy them on Amazon :) ? Reviews are quite mixed on those ones including the wrong size/diameter/missing bolts and scratched surfaces. Not sure the ones you sent in the link even fit a Zed do they ?

Ha well I was as have some amazon vouchers that will lower price so other half doesnt realise. However given the importance of these being safe I may look to delay and get them from Uk manufacturers

What price are the ones you are looking at? TBH I don't see why any from an Amazon seller would be any better/worse than say an eBay seller?

The ones I got from PCD were literally only a couple of quid more and I think that was because I got optional black bolts rather than silver

That's about what I paid for mine and the came off my 2.0 Z3 and went on to my.3.0 Z4. The ones I put on the back of my E89 were slightly less but 12mm. wide.
