I love the staggered wheel look and just heard about wheel spacers. Is this stupid? Can it cause problems?

Thanks.

 

A lot of folks use spacers. They're not likely to cause any problems, except maybe a bit more wheel bearing wear. (Although I have not seen any data to that effect.)

Search the site for "wheel spacers" - you'll find some good reading and photos.

 

Thanks!

 

yea theres lots of threads about it. Theres quite a few people with 20-30mm spacers on stock rims...including me ...No issues as of yet besides the obvious tire wear change and possible alignment you may need to get...depending on spacer size.

 

I am not a spacer fan. Just as soon get proper wheels and forget spacers. Problems? Makes the wheel-brake-hub assembly more complicated with more parts.
