The 2024 Volkswagen Passat wheel spacers feature a multi-stage hub-centric design. With a focus on vehicle stability and the performance of aftermarket wheel parts, BONOSS is committed to manufacturing this type of product to provide customers with safe modification components. The following explanation will outline the reasons for the necessity of hub-centric wheel spacers and how they safeguard the vehicle’s driving safety.
Why You Need Hub-centric 2024 Volkswagen Passat Wheel Spacers?
Traditional lug-centric 2024 Volkswagen Passat wheel spacers increase the risk of vibrations. Lug-centric wheel spacers rely solely on the lug nuts to center the wheel on the spacer. This can lead to a higher risk of vibrations, especially at higher speeds. The lug-centric design may not provide as precise fit as the hub-centric design, resulting in poorer connection stability. It can even cause slight movement or wobbling of the wheel. This can result in an imbalanced wheel rotation, leading to a shaky or uncomfortable driving experience.
Lug-centric 2024 Volkswagen Passat wheel spacers also increase stress on the lug bolts. Lug-centric spacers rely on the lug bolts to bear the load and maintain the wheel’s position. This puts additional stress on the lug bolts, and if not torqued properly or if the spacers are too thick, it can lead to premature wear or failure. The stress exerted on the lug bolts from road feedback is continuous, representing continuous wear on the wheel hub.
How Hub-centric 2024 Volkswagen Passat Wheel Spacers Help with?
When customizing your Volkswagen Passat and achieving the perfect installation of aftermarket wheels, hub-centric 2024 Volkswagen Passat wheel spacers are an important factor to consider. The hub-centric design ensures a precise and secure connection between the vehicle’s wheel hub and the spacer.
In the hub-centric design, the spacer’s center bore perfectly matches the wheel hub’s center bore. This means the spacer fits tightly onto the hub, creating a centered connection. Unlike lug-centric spacers that rely solely on the lug nuts to center the wheel, hub-centric wheel spacers provide a more stable and balanced fit.
The hub-centric design offers several advantages. Firstly, and most importantly, it helps distribute the load evenly across the entire wheel hub assembly. This reduces stress on the lug bolts and prevents excessive force on the wheel studs. By maintaining a centered connection, hub-centric wheel spacers minimize the risk of vibrations, wheel wobbling, and potential steering issues with lug-centric spacers.
Another significant advantage of hub-centric wheel spacers is their contribution to improved handling and stability. The spacer properly centered on the hub helps maintain the correct wheel alignment. This is particularly important when using wider aftermarket wheels or tires. Hub-centric spacers provide the necessary support to ensure a balanced stance and proper wheel tracking, enhancing control and a more comfortable driving experience.
BONOSS’s multi-stage hub-centric design for the 2024 Volkswagen Passat wheel spacers maximizes the contact area between the spacers and the protruding part of the rotor. With BONOSS’s precision CNC machining of 0.02mm, the contact between the wheel spacers and the rotor generates static friction, ensuring that the spacers remain concentric. Additionally, the wheel spacers need to make contact with the center bore of the wheel hub, which requires a high level of precision in the central protruding part of the spacers as well.
