Hey guys, I recently posted a thread on here about wheel spacers. I found the solution to my problem. My general question I had was, for the people who "HAVE" ran hub centric wheel spacers such as this link i will post right here

Link: https://www.cjponyparts.com/accelat...uOPi_3bS7ps-UrfpxvRmmYNRuBUcgEgRoCUG8QAvD_BwE

If properly installed, what is the speed rating for for this wheel spacer? I do know that getting longer extended bolts with forged wheel spacers instead would be a overall safer choice and better choice. But for a person that would settle temporarily with hub centric wheel spacers, does anyone know? Thanks!

What do you mean by " longer extended bolts with forged wheel spacers ?" The spacers in your link are billet. Bolt thru spacers are better than bolt on designs. A wheel with the proper offset is better than both. The spacer should not effect the "Speed rating" if properly installed. (Edited to correct my wording error)

As you already know, when running spacers, those are not the safest option. That being said, regular driving on them is fine but wouldnt take them to the track

Isn't the opposite true? Bolt on spacers have an additional failure point from the additional bolts and where they are being attached at.

Slip on spacers essentially just extends the wheel offset (without adding those failure points). That has the studs from your hub going all the way through the spacer and securing the wheel on.

Your mechanical and analytical skills are obviously sorely lacking for making such comments
You got everything wrong

Post #6 already explained why you’re all wrong
I will just add that all of us that road race our Mustang use 1” bolt trough spacers with extended studs
As a matter of fact, Ford Performance sell hubs that already have the extended studs installed

You are correct, just got my wording backwards.
