How to install wheel spacers on a Toyota 4×4. My thoughts on using wheel spacers, some of the pros and cons of using wheel spacers, and some of the tricks I’ve learned in dealing with wheel spacers over the years.
Generally, I’m a fan of wheel spacers. The biggest thing is just to realize that you’ve deviated from the factory tolerances and that parts (like wheel bearings) are going to wear faster from strain that falls outside the design parameters. but, if you’re running tires big enough to need wheel spacers, you probably know that already.
I say it in the video, but I can’t say it enough: Check those nuts that hold the spacer on often. Wheeling rigs have a freakish ability to loosen everything attached to them.
