Spacers put an undue amount of stress on the wheel bearings and will cause them to fail much quicker. The are also not the safest things since they can loosen up and the first time you learn about it is when your wheel passes you up on the road. It is always best to use rims with the proper backspacing. -- DougW |

Re: Opinions on wheel spacers
I wouldn't trust them I've seen too many of them have the wheel
break off, on just the old VW pans used as dune buggies. And there's a couple of Jeeps on the internet that had there adapted wheels break off, I found while searching for broken Dana 35c axles. Just buy the right rim, in the first place. God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Shadow wrote: > > Group, > > Check these out.

Re: Opinions on wheel spacers
Every set of spacers I've ever seen have a BIG warning sticker on the box
saying "Not Intended for Offroad Use!" Me, I'd save up and get wheels with the correct back-spacing. Also, as Doug says, it would be real bad to see one of your wheels pass you on the highway. Good Luck! Best, Don -- Life is not a journey to the grave with the ultimate goal of making it safely un-scathed, but rather to show-up, skidding broadside, used up, worn out, and screaming "YeeHaaaaa" at the tops of your lungs. -- i8tokyo -- _____ ,[_____],|\ -©|||||||©--|¯¯¯| (_( ¯¯¯ (_()¯ (_() "Shadow" <shadow@optonline.net> wrote in message news:Zh9yb.13586$iU5.4654657@news4.srv.hcvlny.cv.n et... > Group, > > Check these out.
