WE DON'T USE SPACERS!!!!!

What's wrong with spacers?
If they're good enough for billion dollar race teams, they're good enough for street cars.

They use billion-dollar wheel bearings too.

Fair point.

Still, price of increased wheel bearing replacement interval vs significantly reduced tire life from not being able to rotate tires.....I'll take the wheel bearings

 

[cerbomark]

question, i don t understand the differnce with the wheel bearing forces coming from a spacer and coming from a different wheel offset. The forces still would be the same.?

 

[Rael]

It's only the freedom to choose that's priceless.

Wheels spacers, of the non bolt-on variety, are totally fine
Not only used by race teams but also by Porsche on some of their street cars
As for the race bearing comments, that make no sense
A spacer do not create more load on the bearings than a wheel with similar negative offset

Thank you.

First off, i am not a fan of spacers, we like to have direct contact from wheel to hub. Your average consumer and for what we are doing " NON BILLION RACE CARS " you shouldn't have to
run spacers on wheels. I have seen many companies who sell " Cough Cough " Forged wheels
still adding spacers. You think that's legit ?

If you’re running extended studs with stud-through spacers (the correct way) in order to maintain a squared setup for track, yes, I do think that it is legit.
I’m a normal consumer, and definitely do not have a billion dollar race car.

On all of my other non-tracked vehicles, I do choose aftermarket wheel and tire setups based on their offset.
I do not prefer to run spacers on my street vehicles, usually because they would be the bolt-on type.

Yes.
Please stop adding to the illogical fear of slip-on spacers.
