Wheel spacers are used to increase a vehicle’s track width by creating space between the hub and the wheel, effectively pushing the wheels outward. This modification can provide several functional and aesthetic benefits:

• Improved handling and stability: A wider track increases lateral grip and can make the vehicle feel more planted, particularly during cornering or high-speed driving.

• Enhanced steering and braking response: Reducing the scrub radius by moving the wheel outward can improve steering feedback and braking stability, especially in performance applications.

• Improved clearance: Spacers can create additional space between the wheel and suspension components, allowing for the fitment of wider tires or aftermarket suspension setups.

• Visual impact: Wheel spacers can give the vehicle a more aggressive stance by helping the wheels sit flush with or closer to the fender line.

Caution:
While wheel spacers can offer performance and aesthetic gains, they also introduce potential drawbacks. These include changes to suspension geometry, increased load on wheel bearings and hubs, and potential alignment or tire wear issues. It’s essential to ensure proper fitment, use high-quality hardware, and consult a qualified technician before installation.

Always verify compatibility with your vehicle’s specifications, and check local regulations regarding wheel spacer use.

Note: Spacers are sold individually. A complete set requires four—one for each wheel.
