2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers are safe to use. Forged aluminum Audi Q3 wheel spacers are reliable, and if you want to choose thin Audi Q3 wheel spacers, the slip-on type will provide you with a perfect experience. If you want a more aggressive Audi Q3 look or need to match the hardware upgrade, the bolt-on type will be your better choice. BONOSS always insists on producing high-performance 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers wheel spacers for special vehicles, which have unique advantages compared with wheel spacers in the market.
Are 2023 Audi Q3 Wheel Spacers Safe?
BONOSS 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers are safe. Audi uses wheel bolts to lock the wheels; wheel spacers also need wheel bolts. These longer wheel bolts will pass through the wheel spacers, wheels, and hub assembly, and the length of the longer bolts will ensure that they have safe enough turns to lock all the parts and keep the 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers safe.
The thickness of Bolt-on 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers requires them to be mounted on the hub assembly. You need to use extra wheel bolts with stock wheel bolts to lock the wheel spacers and wheels, respectively. These wheel bolts are made of the same material as the slip-on wheel bolts. The steel alloy SCM440 has an ultimate tensile strength of 1220MPa and can withstand the shear force caused by the wheel’s rotation.
Whether it is a slip-on or bolt-on type of 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers, they are both hub-centric. Hub-centric refers to the central hole of the wheel spacers, which includes a recessed section on the back and a protruding section on the front, and its function is to help the wheels fit better into the hub assembly, allowing the wheels to stay centered in the hub assembly at all times. The body’s weight will be transferred evenly from the hub assembly to the tires.
In contrast to lug-centric 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers, the lack of hub-centric construction causes them to rely on wheel bolts to secure and lock the wheels, and the impact of the road will affect the shape of the bolt holes. The irregular shape causes the bolts to loosen and eventually leads to resonance at high speeds.
Will 2023 Audi Q3 Wheel Spacers Hurt Driving?
The 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers are more driving-friendly. The increase in grip through the wheel spacers mounted on the front, and rear wheels will be more pronounced, especially when steering. The wheel spacers at the front wheels will increase lateral grip, and since the front wheels are responsible for steering, the vehicle will have less tendency to understeer. Conversely, wheel spacers on the rear wheels will reduce the tendency to oversteer, so if your 2023 Audi Q3 has understeer or oversteer problems, you can increase the grip by installing 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers in different positions.
Choosing the proper thickness of 2023 Audi Q3 wheel spacers and installing them correctly will not cause any problems. You can install wheel spacers with a thickness of 10mm-25mm for cosmetic problems caused by insufficient wheel offset, or you can install wheel adapters with a thickness of 25mm or more for off-road needs. BONOSS does not recommend stacking wheel spacers, as this will result in uneven forces on the parts. Tightening all wheel bolts and checking their torque regularly will reduce the possibility of failure.
