Generally, the stud pattern of a 2019-2025 Land Rover Defender spacer is 5x120mm. It is worth noting that the old model 1983-2016 Defender has a 5×165.1mm bolt pattern. When spacers are combined with broad tires, the appearance enhancement is especially effective. For many off-roading enthusiasts who enjoy hitting the trails, or driving on rough tracks, upgrading with Defender spacers to better handling and higher performance doubles the experience.
When it comes to the best Land Rover Defender spacers, always choose the genuine brand set. Indeed, reputable manufacturers make nice wheel spacers. A genuine brand typically becomes a genuine brand because it has developed a reputation for high quality. The manufacturing process is strictly regulated, and factories only use processes that have been proven to be safe. Using such Defender wheel spacers, you will be worry-free in off-roading adventures.
Can Land Rover Defender Spacers Fail?
As a rule of thumb, bolt-on Defender wheel spacers are safer and more reliable in 4×4 events. They are bolted onto the vehicle hub and the wheels are fastened on the spacers. Two sets of wheel lugs keep the hub-spacer-wheel connection firm and stable. To ensure a stable wheel connection, BONOSS forged active cooling Defender wheel spacers come with ISO grade 12.9 wheel studs. These studs have a minimum tensile strength of 1,220 MPa. The higher the tensile strength, the less chance of wheel spacer failure.
Additionally, BONOSS forged active cooling Land Rover Defender spacers come with active cooling grooves which 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. A brake fade occurs when the brakes heat up under long, hard applications. Such BONOSS forged active cooling Defender spacers are helpful to reduce brake thermal decay and improve road safety.
What Are Rustproof Defender Spacers?
To further improve the corrosion resistance and appearance of the spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling aluminum Defender wheel spacers are black hard coat anodizing. 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 more lightfast. This means such BONOSS anodizing aluminum Defender spacers are not easy to corrode or oxidize which makes them safely work for long-term use.
Besides, BONOSS forged active cooling Defender spacers are designed with a multi-stage hub-centric lip which is piloted by the center bore of the vehicle hub. They are CNC machining, precision at 0.02mm, which makes the multi-stage hub-centric lip more accurate, perfectly fits the wheel hub, and provides a smoother installing experience than those roughly designed spacers. These BONOSS forged active cooling hub-centric wheel spacers are helpful in reducing the chances of vibrations.
