You love your 2023 Subaru Outback, but you want to make it look even more awesome and perform even better. You’ve heard that wheel spacers can do the trick, but you’re not sure how to choose the right ones. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. In this post, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about wheel spacers and how to find the best size for your Outback.
What factors should you consider when choosing 2023 Subaru Outback wheel spacers?
Wheel spacers come in different sizes and shapes, so you need to make sure they fit your Outback and your wheels. Here are some key terms and factors you should pay attention to:
Bolt Pattern: The bolt pattern is how many bolts or studs hold your wheel to your hub and how they are arranged. For example, a 5×100 bolt pattern means there are five bolts in a circle with a 100 mm diameter. Your 2023 Subaru Outback has a 5×114.3 bolt pattern, so you need to get wheel spacers that match this.
Hub Bore: The hub bore is the hole in the center of your wheel that goes over your hub. Your 2023 Subaru Outback has a 56.1 mm hub bore, so you need to get wheel spacers that have a center bore of at least this size. If the center bore of your wheel spacer is too small, it won’t fit on your hub and it will shake and rattle. If the center bore of your wheel spacer is too big, it won’t center your wheel properly and it will wobble and sway.
Offset: The offset is how far your wheel sticks out or sinks in from the edge of your fender. The offset can be positive, negative, or zero. A positive offset means your wheel is closer to the outside of your fender, while a negative offset means it’s closer to the inside. A zero offset means it’s right in the middle.
The offset affects how much space you have between your wheel and other parts of your car, such as your suspension, brake caliper, etc. A higher positive offset will make your wheel sit deeper in your fender, while a lower or negative offset will make it poke out more. Your 2023 Subaru Outback has an offset range of 40 to 55 mm, so you need to get wheel spacers that don’t go beyond this limit.
Generally, for 2023 Subaru Outback, the bolt pattern is 5×114.3, the hub bore is 56.1, and the recommended thickness is 18 to 25mm.
Which 2023 Subaru Outback wheel spacers can fit perfectly?
BONOSS 2023 Subaru Outback wheel spacers can fit the wheel and hub perfectly, whatsoever in bolt pattern, hub bore, hub pattern, and tuned wheels. Except for the original wheels, we also provide 5×114.3 to 4×114.3 and 5×114.3 to 5×120 wheel adapters. We can customize the spacers you want. Besides, BONOSS 2023 Subaru Outback wheel spacers are multi-stage hub-centric which means the lip is elaborately designed to ensure the fitment with the hub. There is a chamfer at the top of the spacer lip to adhere to the stage outside of the central hub. If you put the spacers onto the hub, you see that it is so sticking.
Another unique feature of BONOSS 2023 Subaru Outback wheel spacers is the active cooling technique. There are petal-shaped grooves on the surface of the spacer to allow airflow and heat dissipation. In the original wheel assembly, no space between the hub and wheel. When the car is at a high speed, thermal decay comes an issue and the brake response is postponed. This design can remarkably ameliorate this issue and aid to prolong the brake system from damage.
