This whole spacer thing drives me nuts. Some say use it, it's ok. Some say don't. What the heck???? Don't want to buy new wheels anytime soon, but I could use a spacer for the front.

What's the consensus on having spacers and driving the car hard?

 

It's fine. Just buy the right ones, whichever style you go with, from a reputable company, and install them properly. You'll be just fine.

 

It will add a little more stress to the wheel bearings and you might have to replace them sooner then you would otherwise, but if they are installed properly they will be absolutely OK.

 

Spacers have been SOLD. What a fun thread...lol.
