Wheel Spacer Selection. Universal vs. Model Specific

[computermech]

Do you only do BMW wheel spacers? I need 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe wheel spacers.

hi there guys i have a question i bought a 10mm H&R spacer for my E90 (REAR) and it seems like is wiggling a bit when it rolls do i need to have it balance?

[branden4510]

@rk5rk5rk5 E90's usually require HUBCENTRIC spacers to be "safe" above 50mph. While a balance might help, aint no telling if it will still shake anywhere past 50 or 60.

my BMW needs hubcentric spacers too, but i don't usually go faster than 50. otherwise, there's a little ring sold for people who already made the mistake of buying universal spacers. it's also a bitch and a half to put on. It goes in between the hub/bearing lip and the spacer, and keeps the spacer solid from wobbling.

man great video, but I can barely hear what he is saying.

I purchased the universal spacer u have in your video before watching this. I installed it on my car then put the rims and tires back on. I dont know if I did it right because when I took the car or a drive around the block it was wobbling... Whats the proper way to put these on. do I need extended lug nuts?

@Twizster balance the wheels.

[branden4510]

@Twizster what car, maybe telling us would help. You'll probly need extended lug BOLTS if it's "genius" german engineering. You'll need a balance too. be careful each time you take off lugs bolts as you'll need to retighten them after 20 and 50 miles. My wheel fell off because I failed to make this check before getting on a highway.

I like this guy, he knows what he is talking about in every video.

when u buy there kind of wheel spacers is it a pair or all four of them???

[muzzyonline]

@shagynajera usually its a pair...... but i think you could find them in sets off 4 ......

[shagynajera]

@muzzyonline oh ok its cuz on there website it dosent say

[wizkid01]

2:06 - contrary to what this guy says (obviously doesnt know what hes on about....) if the center bore in aftermarket wheels is larger than bore on the hub, there is a way around it - and its to use spigot rings, which you fit to the bore of the aftermarket wheel, and it compensates for the differences in diameter and ensures a hubcentric fit, and it wont give you balance problems!!
