Forged Spacers
– The forged spacers, because of the enormous pressures involved, forging compacts the metal, eliminating porosity and the voids that can be a source for cracks or corrosion. The result is that less metal is required to achieve a given strength, meaning lighter spacers can be made. Furthermore, due to the density of the grain structure, the polished forged spacers will maintain its luster for much longer than a polished cast spacers which is very porous.

 

Pros of Using Wheel Spacers

Wheel spacers are used for various reasons. The most prevalent ones include:

  • Improved car Handling

One of the greatest reasons wheel spacers are used in racing is enhanced grip and traction. Spacers increase the vehicle’s wheelbase for improved handling, especially when making turns or cornering. This is possible because wheels are further away from the inner components, which creates a wider track.

Wheel spacers are also touted for improving vehicle stability, mostly trucks and SUVs with a high centre of gravity. Spacers cause the tyres to be further apart, causing an equal distribution of the vehicle’s weight on all the wheels.

  • Increased Aesthetic Appeal

If you are looking for an inexpensive way to give your ride a unique flush and an aggressive look, go for wheel spacers. Spacers slightly push the tyres outwards to make them align with the fenders. In many applications, a wider stance is visually appealing and a simple way of making your vehicle look unique.

  • Adjust the Offset

If you have a set of rims you like but don’t fit well, wheel spacers will resolve the issue. If the offset is too high, the wheels may run the inside fender liner, especially when making a u-turn. Other problems that may arise may be rim hitting the suspension, control arms or Coilovers. However, fitting the correct wheel spacers can help avoid these problems.

  • Necessary for Component Fitment

When you upgrade components such as suspension or brakes, they may not fit well with your stock wheels. There is no point in upgrading your vehicle’s brakes or suspensions only to find out the wheels are not freely spinning. Wheel spacers will keep your upgraded components intact while improving the vehicle’s handling techniques.

 

Cons of Wheel Spacers 

While wheel spacers have undeniable benefits, choosing incorrect rim spacers can damage your car or even cause accidents. Rim spacers and larger tyres may bring out that aggressive look, but make sure they adhere to Australian laws.

Some of the drawbacks of incorrectly installing wheel spacers or choosing the wrong size of spacer include:

  • Change in Steering and Suspension Characteristics

While wheel spacers increase the track width, your vehicle’s scrub radius and inner fender-well clearance also increase. As a result, the steering becomes heavier and requires more effort when turning at low speeds.

  • Increased Component Wear

Your vehicle’s wheel-end components are engineered and tested to ensure optimal service from the factory. But the improper installation of rim spacers may throw things out of proportion. For example, when wheels are farther from their suspension may decrease ride quality. Widening your vehicle’s wheelbase may cause operational pressure on components such as axles, hubs, and bearing, which accelerates wear.

So, are Wheel Spacers Safe? 

The question as to whether wheel spacers are good or bad boils down to personal preference. However, if you or an expert correctly fit spacers and you drive your vehicle appropriately, you will enjoy more benefits.

On the other hand, if wheel spacers are improperly installed or you don’t have a reason for using them, they might cause more harm than good.

Nevertheless, before buying a set of spacers, make sure they are legal in your state. The Tyre and Rim Association of Australia outlines minor modifications you can make to tyres and rims.
