...same as when a wheel isn't torqued properly,
it may fall off or snap a stud, but generally it doesn't cause vibration.

Wes, if you were in town, I could help you with torquing.
interesting.

K thanks Ian. if I ever decide on a drop and spacers, I'll look u up! THANKS!

I traded a 13" color tv (crt) and a vcr for a 1/2" drive Snap-On torque wrench.
Best investment I ever made.

I do torque mine in a star pattern to 80 ft.lbs with a torque wrench. The question mark for me is torquing the nuts down when it may not be perfectly centered--probably more an issue with the wheel than the spacer.
