Got dayum! son. I thought my 30mm was something fierce of a piece of aluminum/magnesium.LOL In all seriousness though I dunno bout 3inch spacers. The biggest I've only seen or know about is a 2.5/6 inchers or 65mm. Which is an adaptor and not a spacer from hrsprings.

Theyre out there - just gotta look. The Porsche guys run 3-4" spacers all the time with the wider fender kits

I used some 3'' adapters to put my 01' SS wheels on my 95 S10 SS for the rear. Got them off ebay, cheap too, and I wasn't looking for this amazing part to last me years, they served thier purpose for the price. If your going for a temp setup, see whats on ebay. Here's some just to give you an idea, these are way more than the ones I bought though.

I have 2 3/8" spacers on each side because of a narrowed rear end. Run the HELL out of them. Even run them with my 1/4 mile track slicks. I'm in the process of looking for new wheels now with the correct spacing and all.

i would not want to drive a car with 3'' spacers in the rear thats a lot of stress on those studs once the wheels are burnin'....i suppose it could be done but i wouldnt, thats just my opinion.
^ the link above i have ordered some 5mm spacers from them, very well made.

But an adaptor is much different than a spacer, correct? The adaptor bolts to your existing studs. The wheel bolts to the adaptors studs.
