the point train

you missed it


5-10 heck even 15mm spacers on used wheels is a lot more respectable than 3 feet of extra width on the wheel axle

^I don't see anything wrong with FL selling spacers. As I've said before, some bolt patterns don't even have aggressive options for wheels. The only way to get a flush setup is to either run spacers or get a custom set of wheels made. Many cannot afford the latter so spacers are the only reasonable option.

But the guys who have aggressive wheels in their bolt pattern have no excuse. Your goal should be to run a set of aggressive wheels and be flush without spacers (or a small spacer if absolutely necessary). This is coming from a guy who ran 20/25mm spacers for the past year. There are even fakes (which I would never run personally) that come in aggressive offsets.
