Are Wheel Spacers Dangerous?

Numerous practices and applications prove that wheel spacers are not dangerous. There are a lot of bad scare tactics on the Internet about this issue. In reality, a wheel with properly installed spacers is just as safe as a wheel without spacers. A common complaint about wheel spacers is that they cause wheel bolts to bend or break. But that's not the case. Wheel spacers themselves do not cause bolt failure.
It is worth noting that if you intend to purchase a set of wheel spacers online, make sure that they are vehicle-specific. These are usually hub-centric and will fit your vehicle more effectively and securely than universal spacers. Most OEM wheels are hub-centric. This ensures that the hubs transfer loads to the wheels. As a result, there is less chance of vibration.
