I ordered and finally received a set of spacers (1.5 inch) for my grizz however I would like to obtain some input before installing them as I am scared about fitment.
The spacers I got are typical ones. They are the round ones with studs like the XXBilletXX guy. (I would like to post a link but I don’t have that "privilege" yet it seems as I need at least 10 posts??)
When installed, but not bolted, there is a fair amount of play given the spacers’ holes are a little bigger than the wheel studs and the spacers center is larger than the bearing hub.
My main concern is about the fact that unlike OEM lug nuts the nuts provided with the spacers (and the holes in the spacers) are flat and therefore will not center themselves when nuts are tighten.
My questions for you are:
- Do I just center them as best I can?
- Do I need any kind of hub centric add-on to center them?
- When hitting bump at low speed, wont they "un-center"? and eventually loosen?
- Wont the wheels be unbalanced if the spacers are just installed without anything else?
Bottom line, it would be much appreciated of you could share your experience with similar spacers and how you installed them.
Thanks!
