Top 5 Safety Tips for Land Rover Wheel Spacers
Clean the Wheel Hub:
It is highly recommended to make sure the vehicle hubs are clean and smooth. When torquing the lug nuts, make sure that the stud and nut threads are clean and dry with no oil, or grease. Don’t apply lubrication to the wheel’s hardware.
Use a Torque Wrench:
It is recommended to use a good torque wrench to tighten wheel spacers to proper torque specs. Start threading the hardware by hand, then use the torque wrench to tighten spacer wheel nuts in a crisscross sequence.
Re-torque Spacers:
After installing Land Rover wheel spacers, check and confirm the proper alignment and function of your wheels and tires before driving. It is always a great idea to re-torque the wheel spacers after 50-100 miles of driving. Regularly inspect the tightness of the wheel nuts.
Never Stack Spacers:
It is NOT recommended to stack two independent wheel spacers on one wheel. Even if you have torqued down every single lug nut, the spacer can be broken due to different forces. If you want to space a wheel out 2 inches, then use 2-inch wheel spacers instead of three sets of joins.
Check Tire Rubbing:
After installing Land Rover wheel spacers, park the car on flat ground, rotate the steering wheel to one extreme position, and inspect the wheel well of the tire that’s outside. If there are not any rubbing signs, then these wheel spacers will not damage your vehicle.
Where to Buy the Best Land Rover Wheel Spacers?
Brand manufacturers focus on quality and performance. Before leaving the factory, BONOSS’s tech staff will do a series of inspections on the finished aluminum spacers to check for any defects. They measure the individual aspects of the spacers to make sure that they meet the design specifications.
1. Active Cooling for Better Experience
BONOSS forged active cooling Land Rover wheel spacers are machined with heat dissipation grooves. Distributed in petal shape, these heat dissipation grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer when it rotates. The air takes away the heat to actively dissipate heat for the braking system.
2. Forged Aluminum with Hard Anodized
BONOSS forged active cooling Land Rover wheel spacers are made of 6061-T6/ 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. These aluminum alloy rim spacers are protected by naturally occurring oxide film and have incredible corrosion resistance. What’s better is that BONOSS applies a special black hard anodized surface treatment. This ensures a surface of unparalleled corrosion resistance.
3. Disassembly Grooves for Fast Removal
For a better user experience, BONOSS forged active cooling Land Rover wheel spacers come with disassembly grooves. The disassembly grooves refer to the small slots on the corners. Simply use a flat-head screwdriver and place it on one notch. Pound a hammer on the screwdriver at a 45-degree angle. It should come off pretty easily.
