The Tesla Cybertruck wheel spacers are a common and safe practice for your wheel upgrades. Whether you’re planning to use them for daily driving or off-roading needs, if you use quality hub centric wheel spacers and install them correctly, not only are they safe, but they can end up making your truck safer than the stock setup too. The main purpose of installing Cybertruck wheel spacers is to reduce the ET/offset of the wheels, which widens your vehicle’s track. This adds more stability and improves handling even when the tire size does not change. They can be as thin as 3mm or as thick as 70mm, which enables you to push the wheels out just as much as you want to. They are also becoming popular by the day for aesthetic purposes and fitment issues (common example applications like 2-inch wheel spacer for Tesla Cybertruck, 1-inch Tesla Cybertruck wheel spacers). If you’re looking to use spacers on your Cybertruck, you’ll specifically need these factors to judge whether they are safe wheel spacers.
- Size. The first factor is that whether the wheel spacers are suitable for your Tesla Cybertruck. You need to figure out the bolt pattern, center bore, and thickness. You can easily get the data of bolt pattern and center bore on your vehicle manual. The thickness will be determined by the gap between the surface of the outer rim to the fender line. Presuming that you had clearance issues at the brake, you want to add only enough thickness to clear the caliper. Then the thickness depends on the increased height of the caliper. If it is the ET/offset issues, then the thickness depends on the change amount, for example, your stock wheels’ ET is 24, you would like to install an ET 49 wheel, then you need 25mm thick spacers to correct the wrong offset.
- Design. There are two distinct types of Tesla Cybertruck wheel spacers found on today’s market: hubcentric wheel spacers and lug centric wheel spacers. Hubcentric wheel spacers are centered by the center bore of the wheel and the hub flange. This allows the wheel to support the vehicle’s weight and fill the remaining space for a more tightly fit, reducing vibration. However, with lug centric wheel spacers, the wheel will be attached and centered by the lug nuts– instead of the hub. In some impacts, lugs can be bent under force and provoke vibration in your Cybertruck.
- Material. When talking about safe wheel spacers for Tesla Cybertruck, material selection can be very important. There are mainly steel and Aluminum. Considering the strength and lightweight needs, billet Aluminum is more suitable. Both 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 are high-performance Aluminum Alloys. They feature good hardness and toughness, excellent corrosion resistance, and wear resistance characteristics. And forging process further enhances the hardness and toughness of your Cybertruck spacers. With the same material and cost, the strength and safety of forged spacers are far higher than casting ones.
| Aluminum 6061-T6 | Aluminum 7075-T6 | |
|---|---|---|
| Ultimate Tensile Strength | 42000-45000 psi (300-310 Mpa) | 74000-78000 psi (510-572 Mpa) |
| Tensile Yield Strength | 35000-40000 psi (241-275 Mpa) | 63000-69000 psi (434-503 Mpa) |
| Fatigue Strength | 14000 psi (96 Mpa) | 23000 psi (160 Mpa) |
| Hardness (Brinell) | 93 | 150 |
| Failure Elongation | 8-10% | 5-11% |
Quality decides everything in any Tesla Cybertruck wheel spacers. While you may consider that a simple and cheap car spacer is “just enough to use”, the fact is, lower quality means lower safety. Never skimp on price and end up with unsafe low-quality spacers. The quality is always a huge deal when it comes to the components you add to your car. There are various thicknesses of Tesla Cybertruck wheel spacers in BONOSS store. They are made up of high-strength 6061-T6 or 7075-T6 aluminum alloy, which helps them not break in tough elements or conditions. The Global Premiere Active Cooling Technique effectively reduces brake fade, which is more functional and safer. Only high-quality ISO grade 12.9 studs and ISO grade 10 lug nuts are used. They feature 0.02mm precision machined surfaces for proper fit and a better installing experience. They are specifically designed for your Tesla Cybertruck configurations.
