Just got wheel spacers on the back tires. changed the handling a bit. seems smoother but less agile

my wheel spacers bolt on and have lugs for the rim to bolt to, mine are 3/4" they were expensive, but well worth it.

i just checked, the company i purchased these from no longer make them, bummer!

they are half inch. i didnt add longer studs cause the lugs still bolted on pretty deep. well see how long they hold lol gonna bring a lug wrench around and check em often to be safe. ill add pics tomorrow

It isn't coming loose that you should be worried about. You should be worried about them shearing off.......

Yeah the only way to do it right is with spacers like jabartram has.

I don't know where you got yours from but I thought the universally accepted place to get them from was Motorsport-Tech, who still makes them.
