Description

High quality hub-centric billet aluminum spacers with machine pressed wheel studs and matching lug nuts. Our spacers are different than most other spacers on the market in that our spacers come with a lip that matches your OEM hub lip's diameter, making them Wheel-centric. The spacers are designed to give your car a more aggressive stance, allowing for better handling characteristics. Our spacers are CNC machined using high quality T6-6061 aluminum billets and fits over your hub perfectly - eliminating the possibility of vibrations.

Depends on the track a lot. We've been to some that don't care and others that do. Eviltwin painted his black so that they aren't noticeable and no ones said anything since.

Always good to get a set that are hub centric when possible.

You could buy my wheels and not have to run adapters. Just longer lugs and a small spacer. As well as having the widest set you could get...Just a thought


I would try to get wheels that dont need an adapter. There are plenty out there. But many people on here have used them. If you do run them, red locktight the first set of nuts at least.

Re: Wheel adapter

i run them and have not had any issues at the track with tech or whatnot. they seem to work fine, just inspect and make sure lugs are all tightened from time to time. I have not heard of any failing at all, and i konw they are also widely used on Jeeps etc that see a lot of stress as well.

Re: Wheel adapter

Denny there fine. I had them on my Z06 wheels. Hanging the front tires at the track with them.. No problems!! you need a 3/4 spacer for the Z06 wheels in the rear.
