Spacer
« on: 22 January 2015, 19:02 »
evening all,

been a while since posting on here but looking to get back in it!

need some spacers to fit to the ol'girl and have come across these...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Billet-Wheel-Spacers-5x100-to-5x100-1-Inch-Thick-25-mm-56-1-12X1-25/281346662751?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3D0ae09e0d3bc24637a7525c1e39bd2bc2%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D160902765545&rt=nc#ht_4055wt_952

anyone used these? i know theyre thick at 25mm per wheel but hey-ho, want stanced then get stanced

seen these types knocking about but wondering if anyone has actually used or seen them used?

they're not hubcentric so will most likely wobble like f*ck at anything above crawling pace

would that be a concern seeing that it bolts to the hub and the wheel bolts to the spacer?

You will have no line up between the hub spigot and wheel. Even if you got it close when you hit a bump the wheel will move off centre and shake you to high heaven.
Bolts will eventually snap or strip out the threads leaving you with a three wheeler.....

Will put a lot of stress on your bearings also with a 25mm spacer, i know not always a concern but worth keeping in mind !
