Jim* Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Anybody know where I can get some extended studs for my hubs? Had to use spacers for my wheels but not a lot of thread left showing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matt1878 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I wouldn't bother with those dude.. You will go through wheel bearings for fun. I'm guessing you just used cheap solid spacers?..What you need is proper hubcentric spacers that bolt onto your hub and give you new threads on the spacer. There not cheap but they are a million times better.. I have some for sale in the For sale section if you are interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Hubcentric spacers would technically reduce the life of wheel bearings too... Just like running wheels with a lower offset Quote Link to post Share on other sites
