Wheel Spacers

[Snappy]

Lets talk wheel spacers.... Pro and cons.

I have a set of wheels I really like but they touch the rear shock.

I was thinking of putting a 1/2" spacer in.

Are these things really safe.. Does anyone run them?

BTW.. Its a high powered rail

I ran them on my Tatum prerunner  with over 1000hp to the wheels for a long time. As long as lugs are tight you will never have an issue. You might need to get longer studs with a half inch spacer but they’ll be fine. You’ll want at least five full turns on the lugs at minimum.

No Problem here as well.  Big Red hit it on the head.

I run spacers for my dirt tires, for the same reason. No issues.
