- Wheel spacers can fix wrong offsets, make room for big brakes, and potentially give more angle to drift cars. Here's what you need to know about wheel spacers for your FRS, BRZ, and 86.

He answers 90% of your questions in the first minute, no bullshit, no ad spam, just a company that works. Thank you!
Ive watched so many vids/vlogs on spacers and thank you for being the simplest easy to understand direct video out there.
I guess Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!

@Paul Edison i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Paul Edison It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account!
@Barrett Finnley happy to help :D
You're missing a critical point! Suspension. Wheel spacers can drastically compromise the geometry of the stock suspension. Suspension is meant to keep the tires on the ground in adverse conditions. When the stock engineering is altered the entire effect of the suspension could be compromised. It's not just about ride comfort, but rather the ability to stabilize the car in all conditions.
2 things. Make sure the spacers are constructed from 6061-T6 Aluminum or better and the highest bolt density rating possible. Preferably 12.9. Pretty important for off-road vehicles at least. I run 1.25" hub-centric spacers on my Jeep Grand Cherokee and (fingers crossed) have not had breakage with those specs. Did a 4" lift and wanted extra clearance and track. Makes a noticeable difference in handling when lifted.
What’s the difference if you get hub centric and the regular spacers? I have a s10 with 3inch lift on 31s
@@georgegonzalez7552 Hub centric means the spacer sites snug around the wheel hub center. Not only does it keeps the spacer centered which it NEEDS to be, It adds more surface area and acts as a lip for the spacer to ride on and stay put so as you drive and metal expands and contracts, it wont move on you. Its the only type of spacer I would EVER use.
This is the most professional video i have watched to understand spacers. Very simple to understand. Keep the good work!
Wow, what a compliment, glad we could help!
Nice seiko SKX, I recognize a man that appreciates craftsmanship
"You're gonna have to do your research." What do you think I'm watching this for?
LOL
Exactly if i'm watching this is because I'm trying to do my research...duh
He said you have to research which fits your needs/car, after explaining pros/cons of each...
If we have to do our research….. why is he doing this?
Always watch these, even for parts I'm not interested in, just so I can watch the outtakes.
very well explained and informative, thank you!
Love these videos, very professional and a high production quality feel but still keeping it interesting.
Very informative. Thanks. You answered all my questions.
2019 BRZ
Ran converter spacers (25mm) to fit WRX OEMs 18x8.5 +55mm offset. Looks really good now and I can feel the difference from 215 to 245 tires around corners.
Was it lowered ?
Awesome vid! I have a 370Z / stock height / stock wheels. I went 25mm all around. Just wanted a beefier look. Love them!
Twizzle Vee update? I want to put some on my truck. Just seeing if anyone has had any problems.
I use 20mm front and 25mm rear on my gt86. As well as looking better it makes it slightly more stable at high speed. No issues after 2 years of hard driving.
@@BlatentlyFakeName Where did you get your spacers from?
@@mq4oneseventyeight567 They are Eibach ones from Fensport.
@@BlatentlyFakeName hey bro did u end up having any issues?
That's really useful.gonna get them 20mm n 25mm for my stock rim!
Hey how did that go did it look flush with the body after? im thinking about doing the same thing here
How is it? Thanks
Great video, lots of people don't get this stuff. So this is really useful.
Just scored 20mm and 25mm Eibachs from you guys. The 860 Special Edition wheels look so much better a little more flush. Thanks!
I've got the special edition as well. Think I'll go for a 20mm and 25mm just for the flush look because I feel it would be a waste to get new wheels when I've got the special edition.
Has the driving experience changed somehow? Thanks to both
THANKYOU! 5:15 You literally just helped me understand the one thing I needed know!!! GOOD VIDEO MAN! INSTANT Subscribe!!
Do you need to do wheel allignment ment if you do add spacers?
PSA: 2002-2010 WRX non STI all run 5x100 not 5x4.5 (114.3). Also, most horror stories about spacers and adaptors involve purely human error during installation such as: 1)not checking original stud clearance at back of wheel when mounting to the spacer so the stud sits proud of the spacer and the whee cannot seat flush. 2) not properly torquing the spacer/adapter lugs to original hub and not using blue loctite on those. 3) going cheap and buying poorly made Chinese crap off eBay (no Chinese parts on any of my cars and they’re incredibly reliable, go figure). 4)taking measurements and educating yourself a bit about wheel offset, backspacing, clearances etc. and even consulting tables/charts that are free online about wheel cap stability ahead of time 5) following the instructions.
Don't use 'FLAT' plate spacers or adapters. Use only 'hub centric'. The weight of the vehicle rests on the lug studs if you don't use hub centric. Also, if they fail, you are responsible for damage, injury, or death caused by your tire flying off. If you want to offset, the safest way is to buy offset wheels.
Obviously people have heard that if they are watching this video. probably 1000 times. The reason people are here are for spacers not going out to buy new wheels and tires my guy.
Rubbish the weight of the car is not on the hub do your research , wouldn't of thought them plastic spigot rings would last long with weight of car on them if it was that way would do you ?
The hub ring is there just to centre the wheel that's it .
2:37 so you torque the wheel spacers to the same spec you would torque your stock rims to the studs stock studs? (90ft pounds)
So with 5mm i would need extended studs? Or is 5mm okay on factory and anything above is not okay
From what I've seen in the forums, 3mm is the max you can use with the stock studs, 5mm need extended studs. But I'm also curious to know if it's safe to use. I have both sizes at home and only use the 3mm, I'm to afraid to use the 5mms lol.
I’ve used 5mm and had no big issues until I swapped my wheels and it started to tear up my wheel studs not sure if it was the lug nuts or the spacer tho
Pro tip- put metal tape around the spacer and hub, easy to remove no dirt causing vibrations.
if u decide to swap to 5x114depending on the wheel you’ll have to cut your stock studs down so they will fit flush.
I hate how stock setups have the smaller wheels sunk into the well particularly in the early 2000s. U could put an 1nch spacer and still look stock
Does it put pressure on the car or the suspension system?
Will it damage the suspension and tires in the long run?
What brand are those beautiful gold five spoke rims. Very thorough explanation on spacers !!
Those are Gram Light 57CR wheels in 18x9.5 +38

Conversion spacer a bueno! Also, two key key kid is loose in your shop again.
What dimensions do I need to properly fit OEM wheels on a fully stock '17 GT86? 20/25mm front rear? THANKS
My only question is would it be ok to put spacers on the front but not the back?
6 mm slip ons spacers, can they make the wheel vibrate or is it a bad tire?
So, ive got a 06 cobalt ss small 5 lug,i bought a set of trd rims with brand new tires,except the bolt pattern is a slight bit larger.I wondering if i can use a step up spacer from my bolt pattern up to the bolt pattern on the rims.?
best spacer vid for sure. The rest are just non sense.
What ft 86 wearing a demon shirt?
its the hellcat logo

That's the next video. They're going to sell a Demon swap kit.
@@Andy.Jensen that would be cool big it would cost 60,000+ the engine alone is 40,000+
can anyone answer my question: do wheel spacers need to be retorqued every so often? or once you have them on are they good
It's will affect drag time to slow with spacers?
I bought the Perrin conversion spacers and they are awful, my wheels wouldn’t stop wobbling at speed 65+ took it to 3 different tire professionals and no one could figure it out. I do not recommend the Perrin conversion spacers at all!
Hubcentric?
How’s that? Thanks
@@TheNuclearBolton yes Hubcentric
@@HandlewithcareVibes I don’t know, never figured it out, no one could.
He's got an SKX, nice.
I wanna put some 5mm’s on my FR-S do I need to get any special bolts, studs or anything like that?
Drew Peacock’s Mustang nigga
Did you ever get them? In this situation right now. Thinking about getting ARP non-extended studs just for more strength
@@monstershayne never did it.
Does my truck need to be lifted or leveled for wheel spacers?
Ik this is old but no.
If I have stock BBS wheels for the 2016 Subaru STI will the OEM studs protrude from the 20mm spacer and hit the backside of the wheel during installation?
ARP studs and slip on hub centric spacers is my preference. Also I spy a pepsi Seiko skx on the wrist?
R8Prototype I was looking for an Skx comment in here 👍
If your front rims was spaced out from the caliper. Would it be safe to use a spacer with that since no rim will bolt up ?
Hi guys. Quick one from me. Im about to replace my GT86 wheels with the sexay Weds SA10r but heres the thing its only 18x7.5jj
For flusher look, the shop peeps mentioned to add spacers. What they are recommending is to balance, install 15mm (F) and 20mm (R). Would that be okay? Or u guys would reco just stick to the same set both F & R? Kindly advise!
Thank you for sharing. I am planning to place similar wheel adapter on my 2018 Ford Fusion SE. I noticed that your wheel studs stuck out from the holes on the spacer. I have viewed several videos that say that it is bad for your wheel studs to stick out for the wheel spacer, because it keeps the wheel from sitting flat on the wheel spacer. I also viewed videos that show the wheel being installed with the original stud sticking out of the hole of the wheel adapter. How are they able to do that and keep the wheel flat against the wheel adapter?
Hey did you ever figure anything out I’m having the same problem
@@alejandrosilva9077
I did. My new wheels have pockets that are 1 inch deep. My wheels studs are 1 inch l Iong. I was planning to purchase 15mm wheel adaters that would have left plenty of room for my wheels. After I installed my new wheels and tires i realized that they gave me a slightly wider fitment without wheel adapters. Therefore, I did not purchase the wheel spacers. I may get 5mm wheel spacers in the future, but for I am happy with the look.
Yes you’re correct, you have to use an angle grinder or a cut off tool to measure out and saw off part of your original studs that way you don’t make contact with the wheel.

Can you add a spacer to a conversation spacers?
Would it be better to get rims with an offset that sets the rim out past or flush with the wheel wells (stock body)?
Need wheel spacer for legacy 2005/6 ..just slight pop out of my tyres needed.which spacers do u recommend
Nice SKX.
Did you guys have spacers 5x114 going to 5x100
Research your local laws wheel spacers are illegal or offroad use only in some states good video none the less
Dereck M I have yet to meet a cop with the eye of an eagle who can spot a wheel spacer on a car while its moving
Nick Z its one of those thing they slam you with if they're having a bad day
In soviet Sweden you are legally allowed to use 10mm spacers if the wheels do not go outside the fenders =]
@@sedenborg1 Is this really the case or are you just joking? By the way, is it safe to use spacers?
Phaidrus its safe and it’s true. Legal if the wheels dont go outside the car fenders. 10mm spacers.
Is running non hubcentric spacers bad to run over the hubcentric
Is there a lug that should be used?? acorn or any type???
thanks for the video specific and informative
watching this video makes me want to put spacer to both my cars
Thank you
Nice SKX ;)
Can you explain the "effective offset" again?
th-cam.com/video/k1ToBRfw7jw/w-d-xo.html
It’s literally just subtraction, if your offset is ORIGINALLY +15 & you put on a 15mm spacer you’re “effective offset” is now +0
What about when the hub studsprotrude the spacer so the wheel doesn’t seat properly?
You have to cut the stock studs
What if I use nuts instead of wheel spacers and if those nuts are the same size and dimensions
That's a recipe for disaster and we would highly advise against that.
Not all S chassis cars are 5 lug. Only the SE and LE models came in 5 lug. Base models and most S13 were all 4 lug.
calidrifter That’s right, I got a bit ahead of myself.
is it the torque spec of the spacer or the wheel lugs??
I need help, I still dont get it
So even with a 10mm spacer I would need extended studs?
Yes
what size wheel spacers would you recommend for a Audi Q5 with 20 in wheels 255x45 ???
Do the measurements. See how many inches till you get where you want it
For my Aussie mates, wheel spacers are not legal on cars here.

I had to get spacers so my new wheels would clear my calipers
Are these spacers available in your website?
Yes - www.ft86speedfactory.com/wheels-40/spacers.html
can i run 15mm bolt ons without trimming the stock studs? I have rays gram lights 57DRs in 17x9 +38.
Hey man did u ever figure it out cuz my wheels aren’t flush with the spacers because of my oem studs being too long
@@alejandrosilva9077 ..you have to cut the stock studs. I just ran into that issue.
@@ajbucks is that not dangerous and sketchy
@@alejandrosilva9077 .. if the stock studs are too long and need to be cut, they 100% need to be cut. If not, it can be super sketchy. That’s how wheels sometimes come off while driving.
Will Brembos fit on a 2017 86 with stock wheels? Or will I need to get spacers?
royalfresh bbk wouldnt
Luke Stotz stoptech?
No, for big brakes you NEED spacers or they won't fit. Though the "blue edition" uses big brakes and DO fit, so you could buy those.
I want to install spacers for my stock frs wheels but I’ve heard that they cause a lot more wear on suspension parts and/or they’re unsafe. Any of that true? Are they not worth it?
Did you watch the video at all? He literally answered your questions...
In the rear i am on 225/45 tires instead of the stock 215/45. Is 25mm still recommended or should I go to 20mm spacers? Im looking for a flush look and i still have stock brz/frs wheels.
Mrawd Tuner 25 mm would be flush and you’d still have some room. I used to run 225 on stock rim with 25 mm spacer.
@@weixie3459 thanks, i went 25mm on 225! Looks good. But i honestly might go 30mm. You think thats too much? Maybe fender roll?
I think 30 mm is fine without fender roll. it seems like there's still room left
@@jwpx88 Can you recommend me any specific spacer on my stock wheels with 225/45 tires?
Haha my front wheel bearings only last 6 months
how do i keep my calibetrs clean get rust around rotors
Just buy the correct size wheels much safer

Slip ons are so easy for me because my car doesn't use nuts to put the wheel on. It uses bolts so all I have to do is buy 5 new bolts the are longer
