When the OEM wheel offset doesn’t satisfy you, these Tacoma spacers are a good idea for the perfect wheel fitment. With the help of wheel spacers, you don’t have to get a set of new wheels with the right offset. In this blog, we will delve into the best Toyota Tacoma wheel spacers, installation tips, and top brands to help you make a wise decision.
As long as you use a quality set and installed them correctly, wheel spacers are as safe as offset rims. If you get high offset rims, the wheels will stick into the fenders which doesn’t look good. In this case, the Tacoma spacers will be helpful. These rim spacers essentially reduce the distance from the wheel center to the hub assembly, thus they subtract the offset.
Pro Tips to Torque Tacoma Spacers Safely
Clean the Wheel Hub:
Use the wire brush to remove any rust and dirt from the vehicle hub. Wipe down the entire surface to ensure it is smooth. This needs to be done thoroughly because any rust will cause the Tacoma spacers to be installed not completely parallel to the hub.
Proper Torque Specs:
The REFERENCE torque spec of the Tacoma spacers is 83.3 ft-lb for M12 bolts and 103.5 ft-lb for M14 bolts. Use a torque wrench to tighten up the wheel nuts to the stipulated torque. Always tighten them in a criss-cross pattern. This ensures that the wheel is seated correctly and snugly.
Re-torque Wheel Spacers:
It is crucial to re-torque your new wheel spacers after the first 50 to 100 driving miles. Then, just re-torque them every routine tire maintenance. By torquing each wheel bolt to the proper torque specification, your new wheel spacers will safely function.
Who Sells the Best Tacoma Spacers?
BONOSS has the engineering team to measure the specific vehicle more than 3000 times in detail. With 1800+ drawing updates, BONOSS provides the most precise wheel spacers. Here are several key advantages that make BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Better Experience
BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers come with heat dissipation grooves. When rotating, these grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the spacer. This is effective in dissipating heat for the braking system. For those who change to performance brakes, these BONOSS spacers are good to go.
2. Forged Aluminum for Improved Durability
BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers are made of forged 6061-T6 or 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. The tensile strength is up to 572 MPa (AL7075-T6). When facing bump and impact loads, higher tensile strength can bear greater forces without breaking. Hence, these BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers can operate well in off-roading events.
3. Full-cone Seat for Firmly Secured
It is always a good idea to keep lug nuts fully in contact with the spacers. In this case, BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers come with full-cone lug seats. The full-cone lug seats provide large contact areas. This allows the lug nuts to fasten the spacers more efficiently and securely.
4. CNC Machined for Precise Installation
All BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers are precisely CNC machined. The precision is within 0.02mm tolerance. A wheel spacer with a high-quality surface is easier to sit flush against the vehicle hub and wheel. These precise BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers are helpful to avoid excessive tire wear.
Final Verdict: Choose BONOSS, Choose Safety and Performance
With a friendly price, BONOSS forged active cooling Tacoma spacers offer more benefits, such as the active cooling functions, knurling surface, disassembly notches and so on. It’s clear that BONOSS forged wheel spacers offer exceptional safety, durability, and professionalism. Unlock your car’s full potential today!
