Are 20mm spacers safe?
Are 20mm spacers safe?
Properly installed a wheel spacer is safe. 20mm is too short to bolt on then have additional studs, you should use the appropriate longer studs. The spacers should have holes very close (+.
Are rear wheel spacers safe?
No. The load from a wheel is transferred to the axle/hub through the friction of the clamped joint, not through the wheel stud. A wheel stud can only bend if the lug nuts are not properly torqued, in which case the wheel is about to fall off, anyway. Therefore, properly installed wheel spacers are perfectly safe.
Can you put wheel spacers on the rear only?
Yes, there’s no problem running them only on the rear; that’s what most guys who run a Titan suspension swap wind up doing and they’re typically running anything from 1″ up to 2″, so that the rear track matches more closely to the front.
How much do 20mm spacers weigh?

Are spacer lifts bad?
Spacer lifts aren’t bad if you install them correctly, and as long as the spacers don’t lift the truck too high. Issues arise if the spacers are too high, causing issues with suspension. Mild spacer liftsare great for off-road and can even improve the off-road ability.
Can wheel spacers cause problems?
Wheel spacers can sometimes cause an accelerated pattern of wear on the hub components of your vehicle and its suspension. Because you are creating a wider track than what the frame was initially designed to support, you can place stressors that go beyond the tested tolerances that are recommended by the manufacturer.
Do wheel spacers make your car slower?
No, wheel spacers does not make your car slower. -They make you infintesimally slower in a straight line because they add more weight. But overall they are a performance gain – unless they change the thrust angle of the steering too much (15mm on the front isn’t good, imo), then they can make the car react more slowly.
How much do 10mm spacers weigh?
The 12mm H&R spacer weighs almost 12 ounces, the 10mm (strangely) weighs almost 10 ounces.
