^Is it even possible to drive with those on?

 

as Twalls might say anything over 25mm is just dangerous

 

yeah im going to be hellasunk....

 

I sure hope not. I have 30mm spacers for my rear.. (OEM 19's)

 

i tracked mine with 35 and 30mm

no biggie

 

good to hear! hahahh

 

Spacers are fine, as long as they're torqued down correctly and hubcentric, except when there are 10 spacers stacked together.

 

I finally installed my rarejdm harness cover. After much deliberation I really need to start dressing up the engine bay more.

 

It's just personal preference.. You have to think about it in terms of how many inches your wheels is away from your hub...

2.54 cm = 1" so 25.4 mm = 1".. (for those mathematically challenged)

In an ideal situation, you'd want to get a better offset wheel, but when you're locked into getting certain offsets w/ certain wheels (as was my case) then you have no choice.. Either get the spacers that get you as flush as you'd like to be (no matter the size) or just be "less tucked" w/ a safer spacer, or none at all...

It's really all just personal preference. Just like some folks fear getting their fenders rolled for some reason, I don't want my wheel too far from my hub.. The thought of those 5 bolts breaking and my wheel rolling down the highway in one direction, and me spinning out of control in the other scares the HELL out of me. The further the wheel is away from it's point of origin, the less downward force it would take to break those lugs and higher the chance of incidence this could happen.. (simple physics)

Will is right though.. As long as they're properly torqued, then they should be fine, I'm sure they did a LOT of R&D. But I'd rather just have a smaller spacer or none at all..

I'd definitely offer the advice of getting a reputable brand if you do get a spacer on the larger side.. Don't get some knock off.

 

my cousin in China makes spacers out of replica gypsy tears, heard they are as good as real ones.

 

^lol this guy cracks me up

 

H&R is the only spacer I would ever use.

If you're worried about wheel studs breaking, go with the best in the industry...ARP.

Used in racing applications (i.e. NASCAR), they are the best.

 

this morning I finished the mounts for my laser jammer in the grill

painted the scratches on my strut bar mounts

also fixed the LED's in my driver side clear corner

and cleaned out the wheel well in that same side!

productive morning, getting ready for XDC

 

Rob... what a mighty big wrench you have there....

 

Mine is just about to have its 100,000th birthday!
