wheel spacers/offset rims

Post by reeceole »

I was wondering how wheel spacers work? Is it something that fits on the stud? Do wheel spacers and offset rims achieve the same thing?? :?

Do you have power steering. More pressure the wider you go,on steering and stub axles.

definitely not allowed on road and they do put a lot more strain on wheel bearings etc. but so do big offset rims. Can get them from superior engineering (they use snake i think), snake racing themselves and bbm that I know of but they aint cheap.
