In some cases, the Ford spacers and Ram bolt patterns are the same. For example, both the Ford Ranger and Ram 1500 use a 6×139.7mm lug pattern. Even though the lug bolt patterns are the same, the different center bores might not fit over the wheel hubs. The hub bore on a Ford Ranger is 93.1mm while the center bore on a Ram 1500 is 77.8mm. If you want to put Ford Ranger wheels on a Ram 1500, then the 77.8 to 93.1 hub adapters are the solution.
Installing Ford spacers to clear tire rubbing has been a normal practice among many drivers. Different rims come with different offsets and backspaces. When installing wider tires, you have to consider clearance for the suspension and fenders. Fortunately, the Ford spacers can solve most clearance problems easily and quickly. By getting high-quality Ford wheel spacers installed, you can experience better handling and more comfortable driving.
How Do Ford Spacers Solve Big Brake Clearance Issues?
Yes, Ford wheel spacers can easily solve big brake clearance issues. Typically, performance brake calipers are bigger than the originally equipped ones. Larger brakes often require more space to fit. Thus, it is necessary to utilize Ford spacers or to upgrade to new offset wheels. It may take more time and money to get the correct offset rims. In this case, the Ford wheel spacers are the simplest and quickest option to maximize wheel fitment. Besides, they are more cost-effective than offset wheels.
If you intend to install performance brakes, BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers will give you a much better experience. A key advantage of BONOSS forged active cooling Ford spacers is the active cooling feature. These Ford 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. Using such BONOSS wheel spacers, you will be worry-free in any condition.
Will the Ford Spacers Break Studs?
Quality Ford wheel spacers won’t break so easily. BONOSS forged active cooling aluminum Ford wheel spacers are hard-anodizing to resist corrosion so that they can work well for a long time without any problems. A proper hard anodizing coating ensures complete protection against corrosion. The oxide layer that follows the anodizing process offers excellent protection. The black dye not only brings a premium appearance but also tends to be lightfast. This means that the coatings will not fade easily.
What’s better, the wheel studs and lug nuts of BONOSS forged active cooling Ford wheel spacers are approved by SGS and TÜV. The performance results are great: tensile strength ≥ 1,220 MPa; ultimate tensile load ≥ 152,000 N; proof load ≥ 121,000 N. These SGS TÜV-certified Ford wheel spacers are completely safe and legal to use. If you use Ford wheel spacers, ensure the provided wheel lugs are strong enough. Such BONOSS forged active cooling Ford wheel spacers will serve you in the long run.
