As the title suggest I am considering widening the overall track which of my 2002 Puma

Considering

Front 20mm hub centric
Rear 30mm axle spacers

Has this been done... clearance issues?

I bought the car stock about 10m ago car is now
fitted with AP coilovers
And currently still has the stock 15” rims fitted
And a fair bit more but the above I guess is the important bit for this query

Also ABS has been removed so not worried about sensor issues 👍🏻

Car is a fun little toy i love It and use for autotest/autosolos and occasional track day

My query is and I don’t know if anyone has done it?
I have read on here somebody running 20 mm hubcentric front spaces. With 12.5 rear hub spacers and 12.5 wheel spacers (reggie) but is this on an earlier narrower axle??

Many thanks
Tom

I've got 20mm spacers on the rear on mine and it's fine for clearance. Not sure whether there is room for 30mm to be honest. I thought 20mm was the widest you could get as a genuine Ford part.
 
30mm billet ones are available. Link below
What year is yours with the 20mm spacers and how much room do you have ?

Mines a 2001. £60 seems steep! I paid £20 for mine, they were old stock Ford parts. Probably cluttering someone's shelf.

If you are handy and have access to machine shop they look quite simple to make yourself!

It's hard to judge how much room there is on mine without compressing rear suspension fully. Here's some pics in case they help.
