Spacer Question

Spacer Question

Postby kteng » Fri Apr 09, 2010 10:58 pm

Just wondering if the 3mm Wheel Spacers can be install on regular wheel studs for safe usage? and how many lug nut turns require for safety? Thanks!

i believe you CANNOT run any spacer without extended studs- its just flat out unsafe. Running spacers is an expensive affair, don't cut costs during a project like this because it's what connects your car to the road.

80 ft-lbs of torque and three full turns of the lugnuts should be safe.

I'm pretty sure up to a 5mm spacer is safe enough without having to resort to extended studs.
