The 4WD wheel spacers are mechanical components that push the wheels away from the original vehicle hub. This increases the track width. A wider track improves the ride quality and makes your car look better. Simply, wheel spacers are exactly safe to run. They won’t badly affect your 4WD system in any way.
Our experts have run 4WD wheel spacers for 3 months in off-road adventures. No problems going through tough trails, sand dunes, and mudding. One of the most frequently asked questions is: What size wheel adapters are best? In this post, we’ll examine the safe sizes and pro tips.
4WD Wheel Adapters Size Chart
- 1/2-inch: Fits a big brake kit without significantly altering the wheel stance.
- 1-inch to 1.25-inch: A good start for those who seek a better wheel style and handling.
- 1.5-inch to 1.75-inch: Ideal for a powerful look and improved off-roading performance.
- 2-inch: Provides more stability while cornering and allows for larger tires without rubbing.
- 3-inch to 4-inch: Creates significant space between the wheels and assembly hubs.
How to Choose the Best 4WD Wheel Spacers?
1. Quality Material:
Not all wheel spacers are created equal. Always stick to high-quality wheel spacers that are made of durable materials, like forged aluminum alloys, which offer superior strength and rust resistance.
2. Hub-centric Design:
Hub-centric wheel spacers make the wheel connection firm and stable, meaning no additional force, no vibration, no annoying noise, and longer service life.
3. SGS TÜV Test Reports:
The best 4WD wheel spacers should come with proper SGS TÜV performance test reports. SGS TÜV test reports = guaranteed quality and performance.
4. Brand Matters:
You also need to choose 4WD wheel spacers from reputable brands that have good reviews and ratings from other customers.
What Make BONOSS 4WD Wheel Spacers the Best Choice?
Over 17 years of wheel spacer manufacturing experience, countless times of actual measuring, drawing updates, size precision upgrades, and installation tests, BONOSS provides the best 4WD wheel spacers. These BONOSS aluminum automotive spacers are vehicle-specific hub-centric, and 100% fit. Here are several key advantages that make BONOSS spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Better Performance
BONOSS forged active cooling off-roading spacers are designed with petal-shaped grooves. The grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the spacer when it rotates. The air takes away the heat, actively dissipating heat for the braking system. You can use genuine BONOSS brand wheel spacers for off-roading events safely and confidently.
2. Strong Fasteners for Enhanced Stability
To ensure safety, BONOSS provides ISO grade 12.9 wheel studs to secure your 4WD wheel spacers. These wheel studs are all approved by over 75 SGS and TÜV authoritative certification reports.
- Tensile strength≥1,220 MPa;
- Limited life range test≥2,000,000 stress cycles without damage;
- Ultimate tensile load≥152,000 N;
- Hardness (HV)≥395;
- Neutral Salt Spray≥500H.
3. Hard Anodizing for Improved Durability
All BONOSS forged hub-centric 4WD car 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.
Frequently Asked FAQ
Q: Can you put spacers on spacers?
A: It is NOT recommended to stack the spacers. Using a single 2-inch wheel spacer instead of stacking 2 pcs of 1-inch spacers is the best way to ensure safety.
Q: How often should I torque 4WD wheel spacers?
A: 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.
Q: Should I put anti-seize on 4WD spacers?
A: It is optional to use anti-seize on wheel spacers. High-quality 4WD spacers (like BONOSS spacers) are well-treated in corrosion resistance. This means they won’t easily corrode or get stuck on your vehicle hub.
In Summary: Safely Boost Your Car’s Performance with BONOSS
