Mr. Gasket wheel spacers

[buzz11]

hey guys. Spring is around the corner and I'm going to get ready to put my SI wheels on. I need to get me some wheel spacers first. I have an auto parts store not to far from my house that sells some Mr. Gasket wheel spacers. But I am not too sure if they are reliable. Has anyone tried mr. gasket spacers?

Mr. Gasket is an old company with a good reputation. I'd say they're a hell of a lot better than some no-name "tuner" spacers from eBay. Then again, I don't like spacers at all... they put unnecessary stress on the hubs.

I wouldn't recommend using wheel spacers on factory studs, you really should use extended studs....but it you do decide to use some don't use anything bigger than 5 mm on factory studs or else you run a high risk of your wheels falling off. The balance of your wheels might get thrown off with spacers also.

Spacers are spacers. More than likely they are all made by topline. It dosent matter who I get them from, unless they are hub centric specific application, they all look, feel, and work the same. I have put on nearly a thousand of them ( that's not a typo 1000) and have never had a issue with stock studs or wheel shake. Anything over 5 mm I run shank lugs with them. I've had a set of half inchers behind the 26s on the shop Burban for years. Airbags on it and all towing a 24 foot sea ray deck boat with no issues

If they aren't hub centric than they will most likely throw the balance off, I say this because the spacer hangs before you put the wheel on. I know from personal experience
