wheel spacers

Recommended Posts

OK, I picked up some 8" wide draglites with a 5" offset. They came with some 11.5 wide cheater slicks. Only problem is I have to run a 1/4 spacer to keep them from rubbing on the strut tower. I will get longer wheel studs. This being said, is there a real safety issue with running wheel spacers if eveything is done right?

 

Thanks

Jeff

If the spacers are made of quality material and fit properly, and the studs and nuts are upgraded, I don't think they present a problem at all. Usually the people who have trouble with spacers have some cobbled together mess.

jeff, did you roll your inner fenders lips?

and BTW, where to get some high quality spacers?

 

I have done no more than bolt the wheels on. I need to do something as those tires are pretty wide. I may end up going with a narrower tire.
