TrustConquest Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 So around the web there are a lot of mixed reviews about wheel spacers, and I can't seem to get a set opinion on them. I've heard stories of spacers damaging the drivetrain, and stories of people not having any issues with it. Are there any known & direct risks in using wheel spacers? What are your opinions/experience with wheel spacers? All opinions appreciated, Thank You! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboJace Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 As long as they're HUBCENTRIC and properly torqued . . you should have no problems. I'm running these on my front + rear with no funny squeeks, rattles, vibrations on a 17" and 18" combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF600 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Get a quality spacer. I have spacers on my car and I have had no issues. I have lug centric only. With those you can't torque 1 down all the way and then do the others. Take it slow and tighten them up in steps til you need a torque wrench. If not you WILL get a vibration and say the spacers are bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komeuppance Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Almost 150mph on spacers... no problems, haha. I have probably 20k on my spacers... lots of twisty back roads driving. -Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
