The 5×150 wheel spacers are a popular modification for enhancing the performance and aesthetics. They increase the track width. Assuming that the tires, brakes, or any other things remain the same, a wider track will lower the roll center of the car, thus providing a better rollover resistance. So, in general, using wheel spacers to increase the track width boost cornering performance.
In addition, the 5×150 wheel spacers can eliminate tire rubbing issues, more importantly, there are the obvious aesthetic implications. The wheels are further away from the suspension, which gives your car a more muscular and aggressive look. But the big question is: what are the best 5×150 wheel spacers? Let’s dive in to help you make a wise decision.
Choosing the Right 5×150 Wheel Spacers
Safe Sizes:
To avoid rubbing issues, it is recommended to keep the tires stay within the body width. This safe size requires some basic measurement. If the wheel gap is about 25mm, then 25mm wheel spacers are legal to use.
- 1/2-Inch: If you need extra wheel clearance to clear larger brake calipers but don’t want to push the wheels out too much. Then the 1/2-inch wheel spacers are the perfect options.
- 1-Inch: If you never use wheel spacers, then 1-inch spacers are a good start. 1-inch wheel spacers start to deliver noticeable stance changes and improved stability.
- 1.25-Inch: The 1.25-inch wheel spacers offer a noticeable stance difference and help in accommodating wider AT tires.
- 1.5-Inch: The 1.5-inch spacers will make your car stance look more powerful, which also improves the stability on uneven surfaces.
- 2-Inch: The 2-inch wheel spacers make your vehicle look even more aggressive and rugged. They also enhance the grip and control when navigating challenging terrain.
Correct Offset:
Wheel spacers reduce the offset. For example, if the stock wheel offset is +56mm, then a 30mm spacer will make the final offset +26mm. The wheels and tires will sit out 30mm from the hub assembly, providing a wider wheel stance.
Bolt Pattern (PCD):
Only the bolt patterns that match can you achieve a proper wheel fitment. Therefore, it’s crucial to find the right dimensions for your car before shopping for a new set of wheel spacers.
Who Makes the Best 5×150 Wheel Spacers?
When selecting the best 5×150 wheel spacers, BONOSS excels in safety and performance. With the advanced technology and unmatched quality, BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Useful Active Cooling Function
With the same price as most rim spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling 5×150 wheel spacers provide an active cooling function. Distributed in petal shape, these grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer when it rotates.
The air takes away the heat to actively dissipate heat for the brakes. Such BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers improve the cooling efficiency to reduce brake thermal decay.
2. Aerospace-grade Aluminum Materials
All BONOSS forged active cooling hub-centric 5×150 wheel spacers are made of forged 6061-T6 or 7075-T6 billet aluminum alloy. The tensile strength is up to 572 MPa and the yield strength is up to 503 MPa (AL7075-T6). High tensile strength gives it strong resistance to being pulled apart, making it resistant to bending and breaking.
3. Strong Fasteners for Zero Loosen
To safely secure the spacers, BONOSS provides ISO grade 12.9 wheel studs (tensile strength≥1,220 MPa) and ISO grade 10 wheel nuts (proof load≥1,110 MPa). They are meticulously coated with Dacromet. This type of coating gives neutral salt spray resistances exceeding 500 hours. They won’t loosen easily in off-roading conditions.
Final Verdict: Upgrade Your Car with BONOSS
From innovative active cooling benefits to certified materials and precise manufacturing, BONOSS forged active cooling 5×150 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.
