Anyone running wheel spacers

[Gene Rodriguez]

Id like to get more offset for my rear but I've heard mixed things about running them for a daily....

Any thoughts?

[concealer404]

That'd be less offset. ;)

Spacers are ok as long as they're done correctly. Depending on width, you'll either want a bolt on spacer or extended studs.

[Gene Rodriguez]

lol more as in more zero offset aha

[concealer404]

You can't divide by zero, or have more zero, my head will asplode. :lol:

[Gene Rodriguez]

alright your killing me more closer to zero offset you get the point :P

[xjdesertfox]

closer to zero offset could be more offset if you're already negative ;)

You let us know when you come up with a spacer that can do something like that. :lol:

Really guys?

Alright, simmer down.

Like mentioned above, spacers, if done right, are fine. The good kits will include longer studs you will need to press into the hubs. Large offset spacers can be bolted to the hub. They already have studs in them.

A lot of tire shop chains, like America's Tire/Discount Tire won't touch your car when they see the spacers on them.

The question is what are your current wheel specs?

uhm really? how old are you im pretty sure your older enough to pick on people how sad...

its currently a 35 offset all i was asking if it was safe and yes if its done right. Thanks for the answer unlike some people:teehee:

[jerjozwik]

im still not sure if i want or need to use the longer studs with my 5mm spacers...
dont worry, they are not installed yet.

[Ohsixspeedsix]

Lol @ ben.

Im running big 25mm bolt on spacers and they are fine. Just don't buy shitty ones. Looks like all you need is a 5-10mm slip on with possibly some extended studs.

Chill, friend. :) Clearly i'm just joking, as evidenced by the good-natured jab i made when i realized that the thread had gone full circle after your question was answered by none other than myself in the 2nd post. :)

Carry on and enjoy your new found offset!

5mm is still a lot fewer theads engaged by the lug nuts. If they came with the studs, use them.

i just dont know how hard it would be to pull the hub to install the new studs. never done a job like that.

but... i do have a giant v8 engine that i tore down to the pistons, so im sure i could manage that.

Judging by your picture it doesn't look like you have rolled genders. I would do that.before putting spacers on your car

who are you talking to tk?
