Default Where to purchase wheel spacer?

I have an event coming up and I'd like to add on 18mm spacers before then. Does anyone know where I can purchase a pair? I checked out Motorsport-tech but the time is up to 2 weeks and I'm a bit bothered at paying $25 for ground shipping for something this small.

Thanks

Ebay has quite a few to choose from. Get hubcentric spacers. You might consider getting 1 inch, as that is a dimension that they start start using a duel lug design. At 1 inch, you will probably have to grind down existing studs if your wheels have a flat flange. No big deal though.

Jim, The Blaine units shown look nice, but would not be considered hubcentric.

These are hubcentric.

i have these.

Pressed out the studs on the spacers.

Put ARP extended studs on the actual car and just used the spacer portion. Works great
