The Tundra wheel spacers push the whole wheels out a few distances. When pushing the wheels out, you get more inside rim space. As this space increases, you lower the risk of the tire rubbing the suspension or brakes. Many people would like to apply Tundra wheel spacers to achieve a flush style and boost performance.
The Tundra wheel spacers are the simplest and quickest option to maximize wheel fitment. They are more cost-effective than offset wheels. As long as you install high-quality brand spacers, there will be no problem. But the big question is: What types of wheel spacers are the best? Let’s dive in to help you avoid costly mistakes.
Tundra Wheel Spacers: Bolt-on vs Slip-on
There are different Tundra spacers: bolt-on types and slip-on types. The bolt-on spacers are bolted to the vehicle studs and following the wheels are secured on the spacers with provided lug nuts. The Tundra bolt-on wheel spacers are a better choice for rock crawling since they are less likely to come loose.
On the other hand, slip-on spacers simply slide over your existing wheel studs. They don’t come with pressed-in wheel studs, so they are thin in sizes (3mm to 12mm). But you need new longer wheel studs to safely secure the spacers and wheels.
Tundra Wheel Spacers: Hub-centric vs Lug-centric
Tundra hub-centric wheel spacers ensure the wheel is properly centered on the spacer, reducing vibrations and preventing potential safety issues. They are a better choice for rock crawling since they provide even load distribution and minimize vibration.
Tundra lug-centric wheel spacers come with larger hub bore diameters so that the spacer can fit a wider array of vehicles. 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.
What Are the Best Toyota Tundra Wheel Spacers?
Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets BONOSS apart from other spacers manufacturers. All BONOSS forged Toyota Tundra wheel spacers are built strictly to operate well in heavy-duty and under any kind of 4×4 events. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Better Braking Performance
To further improve the heat dissipating ability, BONOSS forged Tundra wheel spacers come with petal-shaped cooling grooves. These grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer when it rotates. The air takes away the heat, so these BONOSS forged active cooling Tundra wheel spacers can actively dissipate heat for the braking system.
2. Forged Aluminum for Improved Safety
If you are looking for wheel spacers with durability and lightweight, then buying aluminum wheel spacers for a Toyota Tundra is the route to go. After a super forging process, the tensile strength of BONOSS forged 7075-T6 aluminum wheel spacers is up to 572 MPa. The higher the tensile strength, the more tensile stress that the wheel spacers can withstand before failure.
3. Full-cone Seat for Enhanced Stability
When it comes to Tundra bolt-on spacers, there are lug holes. BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers come with precise full-cone lug seats. The full-cone shape allow the wheel nuts to fully contact the spacers, providing a stronger and more secure fit. This is effective to avoid any potential loosening risks.
Frequently Asked FAQ
Q: Are using wheel spacers for a Toyota Tundra legal?
A: Generally, installing Tundra wheel spacers is legal and allowable in most countries and regions.
Q: Should I put wheel spacers on my Tundra?
A: Yes, you can put wheel spacer on a Tundra to improve the wheel style and 4×4 performance.
Q: Is it bad to put wheel spacers on a Tundra?
A: No, putting wheel spacers on a Toyota Tundra is a good idea to enhance the off-roading performance. Spacers widen the track width. A wider track provides better stability.
