Choosing 15mm or 20mm 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers requires cutting the stock wheel studs, which is not a good idea for customers. BONOSS recommends using 25mm 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers, where part of the wheel studs will be hidden in the wheel spacers, and the protruding part will be hidden in the wheel pocket. Cutting the wheel stud is feasible, but 25mm 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers would be better.
How do Cut Wheel Studs for 20mm 2023 Honda Accord Wheel Spacers?
Stud-on wheel spacers may be too long for the stock wheel studs. After installing the 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacer, the depth of the wheel pocket on the inside will not accommodate the stock wheel studs. There are two ways to solve this problem. The first is to replace the wheel spacers with thicker ones. The thickness of the wheel spacers will provide room for the stock wheel studs and avoid incompatibility with the wheel pockets; the other way is to cut the stock wheel studs and install the 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers because after installing the wheel spacers, the stock wheel studs are aligned, not aligned with the wheel holes, but with the wheel pockets.
Using the appropriate tool to cut the stock wheel studs will fit 15mm and 20mm 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers, making sure the length of the cut will be necessary. Install the wheel spacers against the wheel studs, measure the length of the wheel stud’s protrusion and the depth of the wheel pocket, subtract the number to get the required cut length, and mark the cut position on the wheel studs. If you are afraid of cutting too much or slanting, it is recommended to cut one by one. You can use an angle grinder or hack to cut along the threads and clean up the cut.
Will Cutting Wheel Studs Cause Vibration?
The installation of 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers is often cited as the cause of vehicle shaking at high speeds. Will cutting wheel studs cause the vehicle to shake? The stock wheel studs are used to secure the wheel spacers. The cut wheel studs will not affect the fixation of the wheel spacers because the depth of the bolt holes in the wheel spacers will ensure they have enough safe turns and torque to secure them.
Several reasons can cause the shaking problem caused by installing wheel spacers. The first one is that the diameter of the center hole of the wheel spacers is too large or irregular because the position of the 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers needs to be fixed according to the hub assembly. The excessive diameter of the center hole allows the wheel spacers to pass through the hub assembly but is not conducive to fixing. However, BONOSS has reduced the tolerance of 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers to 0.02mm, and the increased machining accuracy will reduce the possibility of wheel spacers loosening.
The second cause could be under torque or strip in the lug nuts. Under torque will likely cause the 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers to loosen. Referring to the standard torque provided by BONOSS and the number of safe turns for specific thread data will ensure that the lug nuts are secured. Since the 2023 Honda Accord wheel spacers provide additional wheel studs and lug nuts to secure the wheels, you need to tighten all lug nuts.
