In the market, 1-inch to 2-inch 6×139.7 aluminum alloy rim spacers will fit a 1500 Silverado. For a perfect flush stance and good handling, proper size Chevy wheel spacers are one of the most useful wheel accessories. Generally, spacer size and design directly affect the performance. Therefore, it requires some basic measurement. Take a straight edge and place it against the outermost part of the rims/tires, then measure from the outside wheel to the fender line. If the value is 1.5 inches, then 1.5-inch spacers provide a perfect flush stance.
If you get new offset wheels, compare the OEM wheel offset to the aftermarket ones, and then you will quickly find out the perfect Silverado 1500 wheel spacer sizes. Most brand wheel spacers are vehicle-specific. The bolt pattern determines whether the spacers fit your vehicle. For a Silverado 1500 pickup truck, that’ll be the following: bolt pattern (PCD): 6×139.7mm (6×5.5”); center bore: 78.1mm, thread pitch: M14x1.5mm.
What Types of Silverado 1500 Wheel Spacers Are the Best?
Speaking of the best Silverado 1500 wheel spacers for aftermarket offset wheels, aluminum types come to priority. Because of good thermal conductivity, the aluminum wheel spacers will dissipate brake heat better. This is good for aluminum rims or brakes. When aluminum is exposed to water it creates a film of aluminum oxide over the metal that protects the metal beneath it from corrosion. This makes aluminum spacers better resistant to rusting. If you are looking for durable and rustproof wheel spacers, then buying aluminum Silverado 1500 wheel spacers is the route to go.
Advanced technology and top quality make BONOSS forged active cooling Silverado 1500 wheel spacers your best option. There are petal-shaped grooves carved on the back sides. These grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacers when rotating. The air takes away the heat, so it achieves the purpose of actively dissipating heat for the braking system. If you pursue extreme performance, then a set of BONOSS forged active cooling Silverado 1500 wheel spacers is well worth the investment.
Will Silverado 1500 Wheel Spacers Ruin My OEM Tires?
As long as you install them properly, genuine brand Silverado 1500 rim spacers won’t ruin the OEM wheels or tires. Make sure you are investing in trusted brand spacers. For example, BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers are made of top-quality material and undergo a series of safety tests before leaving the factory. It is worry-free to use such Silverado rim spacers. When installed, wheel spacers become the important parts that connect the wheels and hub assembly. Therefore, reputable brand alloy rim spacers are the best option.
Aside from the base functions of the spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling Silverado 1500 wheel spacers are finished with disassembly grooves. The disassembly grooves leave a limited clearance between the brake rotor and spacer. When removing the spacer, place a screwdriver into the notch and then apply force at an angle, you can separate the spacer from the axle hub quickly and efficiently. Without such disassembly grooves, you probably have to work harder to remove these Silverado 1500 wheel spacers. This is extremely good for protecting the wheel hub.
