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.

Yes you can if the design of the wheel has enough of a lip to allow for typical hubcap tabs to retain the cover. Some wheel covers use the lugnuts to affix the cover and it is possible to use them as well should the wheel have exposed lugnuts.

Is there a maximum distance for space saver wheels: There is no official restriction on how far a driver can travel on a space saver wheel, but around 50 miles is considered to be the maximum safe distance.

The wider tire will rest on the surface of the protrusions and will have a greater chance of spinning (shearing). Recently I have put 235/85 R 16 Cooper ST-T tires on my Gurkha. These tires are perfect for my car,as they are taller and narrower. They can be aired down without any decrease in the GC.

Some large sedans or luxury sports cars come with the option of 20-inch rims. Putting 22-inch rims on with no modifications will cause the car's body to hit the tires when driving over bumps and can cause the front tires to rub on the fenders when making a turn.

Are Wheel Spacers Safe for Jeeps? There are some who would argue that installing spacers on Jeeps isn't exactly safe. However, spacers are safe just as long as they are installed properly and follow the guidelines. ... While it would be ideal to get wheels with the correct offset to begin with, that's not always feasible.

Expert Reply: Most fifth wheel rails are made to the same industry standard dimensions. They aren't all though. If you measure 22 inches on center between the two rails and they look like the rails of the # RP30035 that you referenced they would be the industry standard.

As a general rule, wheel nuts are 14mm front, 15mm back. 8mm or possibly 10mm for adjusting brakes. Seat post clamp, if it's got a nut rather than an Allen key head, will likely be 13mm but could be 12mm or 14mm.

26" has been dead for so long that, while you weren't looking, 650b became standard and is already on the decline! 29" is becoming the standard and it's possible 650b will eventually become only for rear wheels or Plus tires.

Wheel spacers are no longer allowed and tires have to meet tougher standards. Significant oil leaks from turbo chargers and power steering systems will fail the vehicle. The complete list of changes and additions is available online.

It cost me $200/rim widen 2" and $100 for a hub centering 1" spacer each. Total $300/rim to widen and mount a stock rim".

Spacers allow a larger wheel and tire to be fitted without rubbing by creating clearance to interior wheel well components. ... Sometimes by moving the wheel and tire assembly outward from the hub, interior clearance is gained, but rubbing can then occur on the vehicle fender and/or wheel well liner.

What I should have said above is that the wheel from an LR4 will fit both physically and rating wise, an LR3. Those wheels would also be suitable for a Range Rover Sport, and probably a RR HSE, but the reverse would not be true.

Yes, absolutely. Well built with great rims and other solid component choices. They come in at a good price, although it's not quite as good as Hunt's 50mm tubeless wheelset. The only minor point is that the tubeless rim tape isn't the best; it works just fine, but I'd like to see DT Swiss tape.

As they said wheel spacers you just jack up the wrangler, take the wheel off and then bolt on the spacer. Its easy, and straight forward. If you end up bringing it to a shop, they are going to charge you top price for the parts, and then labor. Depending on the shop, it can be anywhere from $200-$400 in labor.
