High-quality 5×120 wheel spacers with a proper installation won’t ruin handling. In fact, these metal components are one of the most effective solutions for wheel style and performance enhancements. By increasing the track width of your vehicle. The tire contact points with the ground stand wider apart which creates better stability.
By creating more space between the wheel and brake rotor, the 5×120 wheel spacers aid to install big brake calipers correctly. This enhances the handling even more. If you have basic mechanical proficiency, you can install wheel spacers yourself and save money. Here are the pro tips to torque 5×120 wheel spacers safely.
Pro Tips to Torque 5×120 Wheel Spacers Safely
Clean the Wheel Hub:
Use the wire brush to remove any rust and dirt from the vehicle hub. Wide down the entire surface to ensure it is smooth. This needs to be done thoroughly because any rust will cause the 5×120 wheel spacers to be installed not completely parallel to the hub.
Proper Torque Specs:
The REFERENCE torque spec of the 5×120 wheel spacers is 83.3 ft-lb for M12 bolts and 103.5 ft-lb for M14 bolts. Use a torque wrench to tighten up the wheel nuts to the stipulated torque. Always tighten them in a criss-cross pattern. This ensures that the wheel is seated correctly and snugly.
Re-torque Wheel Spacers:
It is crucial to re-torque your new wheel spacers after the first 50 to 100 driving miles. Then, just re-torque them every routine tire maintenance. By torquing each wheel bolt to the proper torque specification, your new wheel spacers will safely function.
What Make BONOSS 5×120 Wheel Spacers the Best Choice?
Thanks to countless actual measurements, BONOSS makes precise 5×120 wheel spacers under strict specifications. These vehicle-specific spacers are CNC 0.02mm machined to fit the specific vehicle hub. Their PCD fitments, CB fitments, and thread pitches remain intact, allowing you to install OEM and aftermarket wheels with no problems. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Improved Safety
BONOSS forged active cooling 5×120 wheel spacers provide more advantages with prices at a good value. For example, these BONOSS wheel spacers come with heat dissipation grooves. The heat dissipation grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer.
The air takes away the heat, so it achieves the purpose of actively dissipating heat for the braking system. In addition, the disassembly grooves act as air-collecting funnels, which effectively increase airflow, enhancing the heat dissipation effect.
2. Hub-centric Design for Enhanced Stability
BONOSS forged active cooling 5×120 wheel spacers come with multi-stage hub-centric lips. The hub-centric metal ring is machined to be multi-layers, and the bevels fit the corresponding hub flange, which eliminates any possible gaps. As long as you install them correctly, these BONOSS hub-centric wheel spacers won’t mess up the alignment or cause wheel vibration.
3. CNC Machined for Precise Installation
All BONOSS forged active cooling 5×120 wheel spacers are precisely CNC machined. The precision is within 0.02mm tolerance. A wheel spacer with a high-quality surface is easier to sit flush against the vehicle hub and wheel. These precise BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers are helpful to avoid excessive tire wear.
4. Hard Anodizing for Improved Durability
All BONOSS forged active cooling 5×120 wheel spacers are made of 6061-T6/ 7075-T6 aluminum alloys. These BONOSS forged active cooling aluminum wheel spacers are hard-anodized to resist corrosion. A proper hard anodizing coating ensures complete protection against corrosion so that they can work well for a long time without any problems.
In Summary: Elevate Your Wheel Style with BONOSS
From advanced active cooling advantages to customizable solutions and certified quality, BONOSS forged active cooling 5×120 wheel spacers are designed to provide a safe, reliable, and enhanced driving experience. Choose BONOSS and experience the difference—engineered for those who demand the best.
