Jack_BLOXsport Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 On the wheel spacers, the Bolts/Studs important? When you've seen situations such as pictures, you will know their importance. Bolt/Stud affects the safety performance directly, so they are very important accessories. So, please tell me how to judge the quality of the Bolts/Studs? Thanks!

Mo Murphy Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Jack, I think it's difficult to tell just by looking especially on a website. The best thing you can do is buy from a reputable supplier who will help if something goes wrong. Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Yep, and someone with racing experience is likely to know whether what they sell keeps coming back to them after hard landings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Why do you need spacers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie69 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Prefer to fit properly offset wheels instead of spacers, but for aesthetics, I can sometimes understand the need to retain alloys with a fixed offset, or after a rubber upgrade.

Anderzander Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 That makes sense. I've looked for some less than 30mm for mine - and I've seen some at 25mm being sold in the states but they are crazy prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 The MSA don't allow spacers unless they are TUV approved... which none of them are that I've ever found. As a result you can't ask "racers" because they're not supposed to be using them. As others have said, I much prefer to just use the correct wheels, no point in introducing a new point of failure, especially on something that is responsible for holding the wheels on !

Bowie69 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 TUV approved spacers: http://www.devon4x4.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=192&category_id=75&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=14 There's list that contains the approved tyre sizes here, unfortunately no 35's in there(!) http://www.devon4x4.com/images/stories/PDF/32tg0624-04.pdf That said, many racers are on smaller tyres anyways. Wonder if Jack is coming back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
