The Porsche wheel spacers are wheel parts that improve the wheel style and performance. As long as you keep the wheels still covered by the fender flares, using wheel spacers is safe and reliable. Some famous aftermarket wheel suppliers will provide wheel spacers to fit their offset wheels. Therefore, it is exactly OK to use proper-size wheel spacers.
In the market, there are hub-centric wheel spacers and lug-centric spacers. Usually, a hub-centric wheel spacer is machined to fit the specific vehicle hub. When upgrading with wheel spacers, a vehicle-specific set is always the best option. In this article, we’ll explore what types of Porsche wheel spacers are safe to use,.
Best Porsche Wheel Spacers Type: Hub-centric vs Lug-centric
In brief words, most tire experts suggest installing hub-centric wheel spacers for Porsche cars.
Hub-centric wheel spacers are designed with center rings that fit perfectly the axle and the space inside the center bore of the wheel. In this way, the wheel is centered by the hub connection and the lugs can hold it flush against the mounting plate. This ensures the wheel is properly centered on the spacer, reducing vibrations and preventing potential safety issues.
Lug-centric wheel spacers come with larger hub bore diameters so that the spacer can fit a wider array of vehicles. The spacer looks like a large washer that fits in the gap between the hub and wheel. Without the support of the hub (because of the gap), the wheel cannot be centered on the axle, leading to annoying wheel vibrations while driving.
How Do I Know if My Porsche Wheel Spacers are Hub Centric?
The quickest way to know if the spacers are hub centric is to look at the middle hub of the spacers and wheel assembly. If the middle hole of the wheel spacer fits snugly against the vehicle hub, then it is a hub-centric spacer. If there is a gap between the center hole of the wheel spacer and the vehicle hub, then it is a lug-centric spacer.
Why BONOSS Porsche Wheel Spacers Stand Out?
When selecting Porsche wheel spacers, BONOSS excels in safety and performance. Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets BONOSS apart from other spacer manufacturers. With the advanced technology and unmatched quality, BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Extreme Lightweight for More Benefits
As we all know, the lighter the unsprung weight is, the better the handling capabilities. BONOSS forged lightweight plus Porsche wheel spacers are machined with “Hollow Carved” holes. Compared with the previous production, they are at least 20% lighter. The weight of these BONOSS wheel spacers is quite insignificant, and they won’t damage any suspension parts.
2. Optimized Hub-centric for Better Stability
To provide a perfect fitment, BONOSS makes adjustments to the spacers according to the actual vehicle hub design. These BONOSS forged lightweight plus Porsche wheel spacers come with better multi-stage hub-centric lips. They are Porsche-specific hub-centric wheel spacers.
The hub-centric rings are machined with several hollow notches. Each hole is specifically made to fit the new Porsche three-fingers or five-fingers hub design. This is helpful to keep the spacers and wheels centered and balanced, reducing the chance of high-speed vibration.
3. Aerospace-grade Aluminum for Safety
All BONOSS forged lightweight plus Porsche wheel spacers are made of forged 7075-T6 billet aluminum alloy. The tensile strength is up to 572 MPa and the yield strength is up to 503 MPa (as strong as aviation aircraft). High tensile strength gives it strong resistance to being pulled apart, making it resistant to bending and breaking.
Final Verdict: Upgrade Your Car with BONOSS
From effective lightweight plus benefits to certified materials and precise manufacturing, BONOSS forged lightweight plus Porsche wheel spacers are engineered to enhance your driving experience with safety, strength, and reliability. Discover the difference with BONOSS—built for drivers who demand excellence.
