The most common purpose of Honda Pilot spacers 5×120 is to improve the vehicle’s handling and appearance. By moving the wheels and tires outwards, wheel spacers increase the track width. A wider track provides more stability and gives your SUV a more aggressive look. In addition, the Honda spacers are helpful components in other performance improvements.
By moving the wheels and tires out, these hub-centric spacers prevent aftermarket wheels or larger performance brakes from rubbing against the wheel arches. Investing in a set of quality Honda Pilot spacers 5×120 and you will get more dynamics and comfortable driving. In this post, we’ll take a look at the safe wheel spacer sizes, offsets, and the best spacer brands.
How to Choose the Best Honda Pilot Spacers Sizes?
Choosing the best Honda Pilot wheel spacer size depends on your personal preferences and car’s modification. Here are a few tips to help you decide:
Proper Thickness:
In regard to actual wheel fitment, Honda Pilot accepts a wide wheel spacer size range. From tour days to daily commuting, there are many options for Honda spacers. Here’s a quick pros and cons breakdown of popular sizes:
- 3mm to 12mm: Creates proper clearance for performance brake calipers (like Brembo GT kits).
- 15mm to 25mm: Achieves a perfect flush wheel stance while enhancing ride quality.
- 30mm to 35mm: Allows for sports absorbers and coilovers which improves handling.
- 40mm to 50mm: Ideal for a wide-body build, offering more stability when cornering.
Bolt Pattern (PCD):
It’s crucial to find the right wheel spacers for Pilot. Here is a brief guide to the bolt pattern (PCD) and center bore (CB) of a Honda Pilot (including the old models):
- Pilot IV (2024-2025): PCD=5x120mm, CB=64.1mm, Thread=M14x1.5mm.
- Pilot III (2019-2023): PCD=5x120mm, CB=64.1mm, Thread=M14x1.5mm.
- Pilot II (2009-2018): PCD=5x120mm, CB=64.1mm, Thread=M14x1.5mm.
- Pilot I (2003-2008): PCD=5×114.3mm, CB=64.1mm, Thread=M12x1.5mm.
Wheel Offset:
The Honda Pilot wheel spacers reduce the wheel offset. Lower offsets make the wheels sit further out. For example, the stock offset is +37mm, then a +50mm offset wheel will sit further inside the wheel well. In this case, you can use 12mm wheel spacers to make the offset +38mm (50-12=38mm).
Extra Modifications:
If you added a wide-boy kit with stock wheels and tires, you may need thicker 2-inch wheel spacers to avoid rubbing issues. If you just need a little bit of wheel clearance to clear bigger brake calipers, then 3mm to 10mm spacers are sufficient.
Who Sells the Best Honda Pilot Spacers 5×120 Near Me?
Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets apart BONOSS from other spacers manufacturers. All BONOSS forged Honda Pilot spacers 5×120 are built strictly to operate well in daily driving and under any kind of 4×4 events. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling Benefits, Better Braking
BONOSS forged active cooling Honda Pilot wheel spacers 5×120 come with heat dissipation 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. This boosts the cooling efficiency, reducing brake thermal decay, and improving road safety.
2. Hub-centric Design, Zero Vibration
BONOSS forged Pilot hub-centric spacers are considered to be safer and more reliable. The hub-centric metal ring is machined to be multi-layers, the bevels fit for the corresponding hub flange, which eliminates any possible gaps. The 0.02mm machining precision guaranteed a high-quality surface, reducing the chance of high-speed vibration.
3. ISO Grade 12.9 Wheel Studs, Safer
BONOSS forged active cooling Pilot 5 lug wheel spacers provide ISO grade 12.9 wheel studs to ensure quality exceeds OEM standard. High-strength wheel studs and nuts ensure a strong wheel-spacer-hub connection. These BONOSS wheel studs are approved by over 75 SGS TÜV test reports:
- Tensile strength≥1,220 MPa;
- Limited life range test≥2,000,000 stress cycles without damage;
- Ultimate tensile load≥152,000 N;
- Hardness (HV)≥395;
- Neutral Salt Spray≥500H.
Final Summary: Unlock Your Pilot’s Potential with BONOSS
From useful active cooling advantages to unmatched quality, BONOSS makes the best forged Honda Pilot spacers 5×120. They are designed to provide a safe, reliable, and enhanced driving experience. Choose BONOSS and experience the difference—engineered for those who demand the best.
