The 5×114 3 spacers 20mm are metal components that are installed between the hub assembly and wheels. Whether you are upsizing your wheels, installing bigger brake calipers, or simply widening wheel stance, they turn out the most cost-effective way to solve fitment issues. They are designed to create extra space while improving performance.
They are bolted to the vehicle hubs. The wheel lugs apply a clamping force to lock the spacers and wheels to the vehicle hub. When the lug nuts are properly torqued, the wheel studs will stretch elastically to keep everything in the right place. As long as you install them properly, high-quality 5×114 3 spacers 20mm are safe to use.
Pro Tips to Install 5×114 3 Spacers 20mm 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 5×114 3 spacers 20mm to be installed not completely parallel to the hub.
Apply Anti-seize:
If you want to apply a light coat of anti-seize on wheel spacers, smear it to all mating surfaces (mainly the hub face, and around the hub). It is not necessary to put a heavy coat, as when you torque down the spacer, the paste will spread out.
Torque Wrench:
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.
Proper Torque Specs:
The REFERENCE torque spec of the 5×114 3 spacers 20mm is 83.3 ft-lb for M12 bolts and 103.5 ft-lb for M14 bolts. This is just a reference value. Some wheels or applications may require more or less tightening torque. It is always a good idea to ask a tire expert to figure out the exact torque spec before operating.
Who Sells the Best 5×114 3 Spacers 20mm?
With over 17 years of manufacturing experience and 1800+ drawing updates, BONOSS provides the best 5×114 3 spacers 20mm. There are several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Effective Active Cooling Advantages
Aside from the above functions, BONOSS forged active cooling 5×114 3 spacers 20mm provide the active cooling technique. Distributed in petal shape, the cooling grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer when it rotates.
The flowing air takes away the heat, so it achieves the purpose of actively dissipating heat for the braking system. This boosts the heat dissipation efficiency of the rotors, reducing brake thermal decay, hence improving road safety.
2. Forged 7075-T6 Aluminum
Unlike regular street wheel spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling 5×114 3 spacers 20mm are built with stronger forged 7075-T6 aluminum alloy materials. The tensile strength is up to 572 MPa, and the yield strength is up to 503 MPa. Such BONOSS forged active cooling 20mm spacers are specifically engineered to withstand hard driving.
3. Precision Engineered for Perfect Fitment
The manufacturing precision of the BONOSS 20mm spacers has reached 0.02mm. Precise wheel spacers provide high surface integrity, effectively guarantee safety, stability, and reliability, and ensure the smooth operation of vehicle wheel parts. Such precise BONOSS forged active cooling 5×114 3 spacers 20mm ensure a smooth installation experience.
