I got these for my ND3 BONOSS 15mm rear and they are amazing. Super high quality and honestly the only spacers I would ever use over 5mm…also used the blue lock tight.
A note about the 15mm spacers. Due to being only 15mm thick these spacers use a special nut unlike the other thicknesses; this is to insure that the entire nut sits just below the surface that the wheel will bolt onto. Only your hub's stud threads should protude above the surfae into your wheel's voids.
Just install the 15mm Bonoss spacer today. i have torque down to spec as instructed. i want to see how often should i recheck the torque spec ont he spacer and the wheels. Nice video you have done.
@@MoisesEmpiredo u have to retorque if you’re just changing tires? i’m talking about the spacers already been on there for a while and just getting a fresh set of tires. i assume not since they haven’t been touched?
@@MoisesEmpire yeah cause i got ps4’s from costco and they said you have to take the wheels off and bring them bc you have spacers on when i was like you don’t have to touch the spacers at all lol
I’m so confused sorry. So those spacers you don’t need to buy extended lug nuts and all I do put those bolts nut on the OEM part and then the new spacers goes into my wheel and OEM lug nuts on it and that’s it? Sorry new to this all
@@MoisesEmpire thank you so much really. Yes I ordered the 1 inch all the way around for my civic but wanted to make sure I don’t need to get new extended lug nuts or so since those are adapters wheel spacers not the regular wheel spacers where you need extended lug nuts right? Sorry my bad just confirming
@@MoisesEmpire so I’m good right? No need to worry about anything just do as this video and no need for cutting or buying any new lug nuts or so on correct? But they must be torque good and so on?
Thanks for the video. I've installed 20mm ones. It seems as there is understeer now. What is your experience? Any understeer in spirited driving cornering after installation?
I don't think so but then again I don't live in an area with alot of twisty roads so I haven't really been able to push the car during turns enough to notice any understeer.
Because I love the OEM wheels and this is how to get the offset I wanted on them. Also the spacers were a sponsored part so why not. Also Eventually ill get aftermarket wheels but for now I have other parts i rather spend the money on.
Have all the nuts tourqed properly? Maybe try rotating the spacers like you would your wheels. Swap fronts to the back since front ones is what would affect steering if one of them is bad.
Next month ill have had them on the car for 1 year and I've never had any problems with them and I do regular tire rotations every 3k miles so thay do get messed with regularly. I recommend 15mm for front and 20mm for rear to get a nice flush fitment. I got 15mm all around cuz when I bought them i didn't realize the rear of the car is a bit wider.
Hello, do you have 15mm in front and rear? Also, I’m running stock height and wheel/rims. I want to look for a good flush look but I don’t want it to be popping out, I want something subtle but noticeable. Would 15mm all around be a good choice? Would 20mm all around be too much? Please let me know what you think! Thanks.
hey man. do you have to buy them on their ebay page or can you buy spacers through their website? it seems like buying from their website is a little confusing because I tried to order 25mm ones for my car and when I got to the page to place an order I didn't input a credit card number in and i got a confirmation that the order was placed already
@@ManuelCruzalIIII purchased through the website. And yes, the order went through oddly. I used PayPal to purchase them though. They should be delivered today, so we’ll see…
@@liqwidmediaworkztv i ordered a set as well from the website, got an email that sent me a tracking number, i punch it in on Ups website... it says its coming from China. Duh Fuq?..... i thought they was like German or something.. should i be worried?

Hard to capture on camera but its a noticable difference. 15mm is perfect for the front for a flush look but I do wish I would have done 20mm in the rear. But its temporary till I get some wheels so not a huge deal to me.
@@MoisesEmpire yeah no worries bro. I totally get it because I got the 2.0 T Honda Accord not too long ago and I have been seeing everyone getting the 25 mm by Bonoss And they actually come out a lot more stock and then I seen. They also had a 30 mm so I’m gonna go with that to get them to look a lot more flush.
@@MoisesEmpire You didn't show it because you didn't do it. You said you were fine with just using the impact gun. You actually have no clue how tight they were. Saying that the gun will put them over spec is crazy. Over tightening can stretch the stud and weaken it's strength. For your family, but a proper torque wrench and learn how to use it.
@antsy602 thanks for your concern. Car has had a couple of tire rotations since this video was made and lug nuts including the spacer nuts were properly tightened with a tourqe wrench each time.
I don't recommend it. I had put spacers on my camaro before and it's not even lowered yet the fender hit the tires everytime I run on the bumps. It's not good for your car
First of all No ones lecturing or telling people what to do. Im just showing how I did it. And secondly, watch the video again and listen carefully. What your implying I don't know how to use is mentioned in the video.
Should probably ask why they didn't do that from the factory. Sure it looks better, but does it affect handing or tire wear, particularly at speed? I'd guess one or both. As a comment mentioned, you're better off just getting different wheels with the offset you want instead of half-assing it with spacers. They also sell hormone blockers for kids. Just because someone sells something doesn't make it a worthwhile product. Love to hear spacer-selling bros discuss their engineering testing and why the Honda factory got it wrong. Use at your own risk I'd guess would be the answer. Ahh, I just leave my stock wheels right against the hub, thanks.
I can't speak for honda as to way they didnt do it but my guess is region regulations. Like with all cars, if the manufacturer wants to be able to sell it in certain places of the world, the car needs to meet certain specs.... Handling shouldn't really be affected since 15mm is so minimal and as long as your car gets an alighnment, tire wear should be normal. In my case my car is not daily driven and only sees about 4k miles a year so even if any bad changes to the way it drives were to occur, I wouldn't notice it and aftermarket wheels will be coming at some point. Did the spacers for now because I got them for free and makes the car look better.
Older cars (like my Z) have 15" wheels that are only 6.5" wide with 60 series tires. I could not find good performance tires in my size any longer so I went with 17" wheels that are 1" wider. 15mm spacers allowed the new wheels to sit properly on the car due to the difference in offset between the two. My tires went from 215 to 225 --- so you can see I'm not going crazy. Overall diameter is less than 1% difference. For me these are a godsend. I'm keeping the tire load between my inner and outer wheel bearings, so there should be no ssues. And yes, I'm having a proper alignment done. There is a proper way to do this type of work.
Car culture promotes some dumb shit but StANCe would have to be in the top 5 most ridiculous. I would bet this car has lost performance after this "mod"
What a fail. Doesn't even torque it down and is using those stupid spacers that bolt onto the existing lugs. Changes the geometry of the suspension creates more wear and tear on the ball joints and the wheel bearings and even the axles since it's bringing the wheel out farther from the hub. But do what you got to do for a "look" I see a plastic wrap all over your car also so it all makes sense. 😂
If you are putting wider wheels on the car (say from 6" to 7") just be sure to keep the cross secton center of the wheel between your inner and outer bearings. You can then adjust camber/caster so that the tire sits flat on the road. Do the above and you should be fine. It's only an issue if you go with too much spacer thickness (or too wide a wheel) and push your tire's load well outside of both wheel bearings.
I got these for my ND3 BONOSS 15mm rear and they are amazing. Super high quality and honestly the only spacers I would ever use over 5mm…also used the blue lock tight.

Lol thats awesome! Your welcome!

Nice video you have done.
Awesome! I personally do tire rotations every 3k to 4k miles so mine get checked and tourqed that often.
The website to check after the first 100 Miles. After that I would imagine it follows your regular tire rotation schedule
@@MoisesEmpiredo u have to retorque if you’re just changing tires? i’m talking about the spacers already been on there for a while and just getting a fresh set of tires. i assume not since they haven’t been touched?
@oni5909 thays correct. They are already tourqed down so no need to do it again. Unless u just wanna make sure they are still tight.
@@MoisesEmpire yeah cause i got ps4’s from costco and they said you have to take the wheels off and bring them bc you have spacers on when i was like you don’t have to touch the spacers at all lol

Why didn’t you just buy aftermarket wheels with a lower offset?
Because I love the OEM wheels and this is how to get the offset I wanted on them. Also the spacers were a sponsored part so why not.
Also Eventually ill get aftermarket wheels but for now I have other parts i rather spend the money on.
I just installed the 15mm on my stock FL5. Only downside I'm seeing is a little vibration on the steering wheel after 65mph.
Thats odd. I dont have that problem.
@@brewed544 unfortunately no. Might be a bad pair of set I got.
Have all the nuts tourqed properly? Maybe try rotating the spacers like you would your wheels. Swap fronts to the back since front ones is what would affect steering if one of them is bad.
How is it holding on? I'm thinking about going with 20mm, but I'm not sure yet

I recommend 15mm for front and 20mm for rear to get a nice flush fitment. I got 15mm all around cuz when I bought them i didn't realize the rear of the car is a bit wider.
For added piece of mind, I use a small amount of blue threadlock on the factory studs, and then torque to spec. Nice little comparison video!
Lol you don't use threadlock. You should use anti sieze
@@frankgronowski5538 Anti-seize on the hub contact point, thread-lock on the stud/nut threads.
When adding the bonoss spacers are the torque specs the same as the wheels at 94 ft pounds?
Yes
Hi, can you tell me please how long the hub bolt is ?
I have no idea. I didnt measure them.
Looks great with the 15mm. How are you liking the swift springs?
Thanks! I love them. To me they ride like OEM just lower.
@@MoisesEmpire dope! Just bought a set and I’m glad you like them. You got an instagram?
@WeeBEESilly Nice! Yeah my Instagram same name as here. Link to it is in all my videos description.
what’s he exact color of your car?
The wrap is made by Avery Dennison and it's called dark green pearl.
Hello, do you have 15mm in front and rear?

Mine are 15mm front and back and it is flush but as you can see in the video im lowered so idk if 15mm is also flush on stock height.

No they are not. The Type R comes with Brembos from factory.
@@MoisesEmpire damn :( i wish accords did that shit ahaha appreciate that bro
Lol yeah if honda ever decides to turn the accord into a performance car then im sure they will add them.
Any problems since installing?
None at all.
Have you noticed a difference in steering and handling?
No, this is to small to make a difference.
Are you using the OEM size tire??
Yeah that's OEM wheel and tire
Where did you buy bonoss wheel spacers?
Ebay. Link in the description
What will be torque specs? Same as factory specs? Thanks and looks good just ordered a set
Yes same as factory. I think its 94lb if I remeber correctly.
What size are your tires
Stock size. They 265/30/19
i dont understand why a wheel spacer would need cooling
Not really needed but it's a nice extra feature.
Love the car. I have an FL5 myself and was thinking about running by these spacers. How have they held up until now? Any issues with them?
Thanks! So far they have been great. Not 1 problem.
No vibration?
Nope.
Thank you for Sharing very informative. RS!

Always use a torque wrench!
Not a gun as you have no idea how much torque you're actually applying.
Its applying more then enough lol but in all seriousness I do use a torque wrench. Just didn't put it in the video.
@@MoisesEmpire too much torque and risk stretching the threads of the studs.
