Spacers allow you to tighten your nut down all the way without freezing the wheel. Personally, it makes me feel more secure that my wheels are tight. I believe I heard that by removing the slop from the loose nuts, it's also supposed to to make your turning slightly more precise.

Spacers make it so you can tighten down the nuts without affecting the performance of the bearing and/ or possibly damaging them.

Spacers are helpful to strengthen the gap between them (bearings). Either skateboard, inline skates or Kick scooters of any type.

Ok here is a tip if you want less wheel wobble go with the spacers because you can tighten the axle bolts down more for a tighter fit

Hi, I bought these wheels for my 71 Schwinn with a freewheel. I don't own a bike with a cassette, but I understand that this is completely different from a freewheel. I think that there are different models of rim with different hubs loaded for freewheels, fixies, and cassettes, so look for those. For my bike however, the LP18's are great. These are in fact some sort of aluminum alloy.

Hi, i would assume this is on the front wheel bearing, and i hope that the other bearing on the otherside is still good? If so i would measure the inside bearing diameter because thats crucial when the bearing sits on the bearing race, from what i can see, yes that bearing would work, but imNot 100% on that answer cause i cant see the wheel myself.p.s. most bearing diameters go by the metric system, mm it could be for instance 21mm diameter accross. I hope this helps.

Just a regular sector 9 mounting set of 2 in long screws will do. Reds or Super Reds bearings are good and you can use bones wheels, sector 9 wheels, most wheels will fit.

I did both only because I am keeping the vehicle at least another 50K miles. You can do them one at a time with no issues. Just keep in mind the other side works just as hard and has just as many miles on it. To me, half the work is getting setup just to do the work. Make the time, get the tools out and so on. Just a little more time to both if you can afford it. These are great bearings. As for the no-name brands, just say no thanks.

I use the smaller hitch size, so no need for spacers. But I think you're right--I only got one allen wrench and that's for the large bolts in assembly. Take it to a hardware store and have them fit you with the right size allen wrench. It's a pain in the butt, but you'll have one. Good luck.

if you are using spacers i would go with 1 3/4 inch hardware if not you can get 1.5 inch, for bearings i used bones reds and 78a 70mm wheels because they are grippy so they will be able to hold you into the tight turns better but honestly in he-insight i would gave gone with a little softer wheels

I used this combination of screws, wheels and bearings. Hope it helps. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HAYF68/ref=oh_details_o08_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1 this Bones Reds Precision Skate Bearings and this Abec 11 Gumball Wheel 4 Pack - 76mm 78a

I haven't seen the kit offered without a wheel, which would mean you would be getting basically a hub motor plus a rear gearset. The hub motor is fairly large in diameter, which could mean having to order special length spokes (and possibly thicker spokes) than standard, then fitting them to a wheel of your choice. Unless you are very experienced with spoking and trueing/balancing wheels, it would be a very difficult task.

I have 285/70R17 on and it's fine with no spacers, cutting or rubbing. Looks great. http://tire-size-conversion.com/tire-size-comparison/ should help you decide some changes (it will affect your spedo and other stuff unless you re-program the computer). I also considered a 255/80R17, which would fit too and is a bit taller, but didn't like any of the tires I could get.http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/threads/greenhorn-tire-question-2007-nbs-tall-and-skinny-or-fatter.151115/#post-618700 is a forum post by me with some pictures half way down with new and old sizes

You don't need a spacer, I use 2 on mine because I like the vignetting but no you don't need any spacers

I put them on a pull trailer behind my quad. I didn't need spacers. They fit perfect and used a c clamp (came with the tire) to snug up to the axel. Very easy for me to put on. They are Great! No more flats! I found similar items at Tractor supply but not the right size. You could check there.

I changed mine out for some 80mm wheels. You'll barely feel any crack or rocks in the road with those. It's various places online you can buy them.. You can buy them here

Only if you want to. I dont use spacers on my wheels. Just as long as you dont tighten the wheels down to where they dont move you will be fine.

They are sealed bearings no grease fitting, they usually last a year as long as you don't hit things. Reply bearings are cheap and easy to instal, I broke my hub so I had to by all new

Sorry we have been so late in answering. We have been on vacation. What are full extension ball bearings? I will check for you?

I'm using 71mm wheels. I'm more of a cruiser so if you are wanting to do slides and such I am not sure what wheels to use. I suggest looking on some forums for a more educated answer.
