Galvanic action/corrosion with spacers

[valentinoamoro]

Is this an issue folks see when running aluminum spacers with what I assume is a steel hub? I've heard of instances where spacers get stuck over time...

If so, what is the recommendation? Anti seize on the inner part of the spacers?

Never mind...found the answer here.

It seems that CJPPs coated spacers will reduce corrosion a bit compared to naked aluminium...

not sure if the coating makes a difference. i used to run coated spacers on my old vw gti and those had wheel bolts and it still seized up. had to take it to a shop who had to use a blowtorch and a chisel to break them free. i didn't do the anti-seize route as i should have even though it's messy.
