Installing Tesla wheel spacers to get a flushed stance is a very popular and SAFE fitment among many Model 3 enthusiasts. Adding 18mm spacers front and 25mm spacers rear is a common setup for your OEM Tesla Model 3. Since 25mm spacers will push your wheels out about 1 inch, many people are wondering if Tesla 25mm spacers are safe. In fact, wheel spacers are safe whether for street driving or track driving. If you would like to run above 15mm wheel spacers, then we suggest bolt-on Tesla Model 3 wheel spacers. Because bolt-on Tesla spacers come with two sets of bolts. The spacer bolts directly to your hub and then the wheel is secured directly to your spacer. This effectively ensures a full thread engagement without extended wheel studs.
Tesla Model 3 spacers are safe to use, only if they are high-quality Aluminum wheel spacers purchased from reputable stores. BONOSS Tesla Model 3 wheel spacers are made of aircraft-grade 6061-T6 or 7075-T6 billet Aluminum that is strong enough to avoid being the weak link in your setup. Only high-quality ISO grade 12.9 studs and ISO grade 10 lug nuts are used. The Global Premiere Active Cooling Technique effectively reduces brake fade, which is more functional and safer. In addition, they are hubcentric wheel spacers. They come with a hub-centric ring that fits over the hub flange on the axle and over the center bore of the wheel, filling up any possible gap between the two surfaces. Most Tesla originally equipped wheels are hub-centric. The center hole of these wheels is perfectly fitting the vehicle hub.
What Would Cause Tesla Model 3 Wheel Spacers Failure?
If properly installed, then there should be no Tesla wheel spacers failure issues. Two common problems may lead to failure, but people are easy to overlook. They are the loosen lug nuts and the bending wheel studs. Untightened or overtightened lug nuts will cause most lug failures, hence they become loose and ultimately leading to the entire wheel coming off. The wheel studs use a clamping force to secure the spacers and wheels. If the studs are not strong enough to support this force, they will likely be bent by road impacts. Higher-strength wheel lugs provide stronger load-bearing capacity and less chance of wheel spacers failure.
Do Tesla 25mm Wheel Spacers Need to Grind the OEM Studs?
Based on countless case experiences of selling Tesla Model 3 wheel spacers, We are confident that 25mm spacers do not need to be ground any OEM studs. Whether you are required to grind the studs is determined by the depth of your wheel pockets. Simply speaking, if the pockets of your wheels are deep enough for your studs, you don’t have to cut the studs. If the wheel pockets depth + spacer thick ≥ stud length, then the Tesla model 3 spacers will fit properly. Giving an example, if the depth of the wheel pocket is 8mm, and the OEM stud length is 26mm, then installing 25mm wheel spacers will perfectly fit (8+25 ≥ 26).
