But I have read that most seem 50/50 on the whole concept.With many people still claiming BOLT ON spacers are perfectly fine if they are torqued up to correct specs. I assumed Ayden may have consulted with Wiggum just to confirm all good? (Or maybe he already knows the answer cause mechanic bloke I think?). The fronts im looking at might be a gay +38 and with a 20mm bolt on....the +18 will look more flush. On second hand market its often hard to find a set with semi aggressive fronts and tame rear.Edit: just realised you said spacers are bad up front lol. You sure about the bolt on spacers too? I know slip on ones are frowned upon (especially if you dont get longer studs). Edited 26/12/15 02:50 AM by PTR_NITRO_FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im only running them on the rear, no need to on the front. Cause the guards have been pumped on the rear, Ive got FG ute size gaps. These are the bolt on ones, each to their own on spacers. Would never use slip on ones, but we use bolt up one on mining trucks and they work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know what torque to set the nuts to? Same as normal wheel nuts or just tighten til they dont move no more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a heap of people who swear they are fine. You also have to remember that most of those guys have 1200ish kilo cars vs our 1800ish kilos, which I imagine would make a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
