SPIDERTRAX WHEEL SPACERS ARE WELL KNOWN AROUND THE WORLD.FROM MILDLY CUSTOMIZED JEEPS TO THOSE RUNNING THE KING OF THE HAMMERS, THEY ARE KNOWN AS THE BEST CHOICE FOR WHEEL SPACERS ON YOUR JEEP OR TRUCKEver since its inception in 1999, Spidertrax has evolved to become a top-notch automotive parts and accessories maker that is well known all around the world. The brand prides itself on creating tangible solutions to problems faced by every Jeeper. Similarly, it also focuses on creating products that will not only elevate the off-road driving experience of all Jeepers, but also enhance their safety. At the top of the list among the products that represent the value and vision of this brand are the wheel spacers and adapters. Undoubtedly, these products will make room for the installation of heavy-duty Jeep tires and accessories and give your rig a unique appearance.Spidertrax's strong emphasis on great attention to detail is evident in their wheel spacers, which once again is a testimony of the competency of its innovative research and development crews in making top-grade parts only. There are no second-hand options here – it's the best or nothing. Spidertrax products are made right here in the USA.Spidertrax Wheel Spacers are double anodized from the factory. This gives them added protection against corrosion and wear. The wheel spacers include new pressed-in wheel studs, as well as new lug nuts, a Spidertrax decal, and a tube of Red Loctite to keep the wheel nuts in place. (Red is the high strength version).TYPES OF SPIDERTRAX MAKES WHEEL SPACERSHub CentricLug CentricThe hub centric versions have a centering ring (lip) machined right into the wheel spacer (so a separate hub centric ring is not required). The lug centric wheel spacers are manufactured true so you don't have to worry about vibrations, or whether they will be off center. They will run true.Spidertrax also makes wheel spacers for vehicles other than Jeeps, such as:FordNissanSuzukiToyotaInternational ScoutsNow that you are aware of the immense benefits of suitable wheel spacers from top brands like Spidertrax, we are sure you will most likely include these particular models in your next upgrade plans. However, there are still a few bits of information you will want to know before you purchase a set for your Jeep or truck:Your Bolt PatternSay your bolt pattern is 5 x 5.5. This would mean you have 5 wheel studs. The second part of the measurement, the 5.5, refers to the measured distance across the face of the spacer (or center of your wheel) between two-wheel studs. If you measure two studs right next to each other, that would be incorrect. You need to measure two of them that are across from each other.The CenterboreWhile not a critical measurement, it can help. You can get this by measuring the outside diameter of the hub centric ring on a hub centric spacer. If you have a lug centric spacer, you want to measure the inside edge and across the hole.The Wheel BackspacingThis is the relationship of the hub to the backside of the wheel. The higher the number you measure, the more the wheel will be tucked into the wheel well. The lower the number, the more the tire will be stick out from the body.The Offset MeasurementThis is the relationship to the hub mating surface to the wheel to the centerline of the rim. A ìOî (zero) offset means the hub would be in the center of the wheel. In contrast, a ìpositiveî measurement means the center hub is offset in the wheel out towards the front edge of the rim itself. Positive numbers move the tires more into the wheel-well; negative numbers move the tires out from the vehicle.COMMON USES FOR SPIDERTRAX WHEEL SPACERSAestheticsMoving the tires out from the body will give your vehicle a wider and more appealing look. Furthermore, if your tires look a bit skinnier under your Jeep, pushing them out to be flush or go past the edge of the fender flares or the body will result in a great aggressive look that is typical of every avid off-roader.Running a rim with a high positive offset or backspacing measurementThis is a case where you might want the tires re-positioned out from the body for a better look. If your Jeep is lifted, the wheel spacers will make the look even more evident, especially if you have added other accessories, such as extra-wide off-road fender flares.Better handling and stabilityBy moving the tires out from the body, you are creating a wider track and a wider stance. This can improve stability, both on the highway and off-road. Trailing the wider track can even help you straddle rough roads and rugged trails better. It may even get your Jeep more places with that extra reach you need for traction and to get a good tire bite.If you are using a stock rim with oversized tiresThe chances are high that while running this combo, you might get some rubbing between the tires and parts on your Jeep, such as control arms, inner fenders, fender flares, or other components. Similarly, using a wheel spacer will move the tires outward to prevent them from rubbing up against those critical parts.Spidertrax also makes high-quality wheel adaptersSo you can adapt one vehicle's bolt pattern to your own pattern. These allow you to run various rim sizes if they are not for your stock setup. For instance, running JK wheels on a TJ would require a wheel adapter.Spidertrax Wheel Spacers and Wheel Adapters are available in different thicknesses, from 1.25 up to 1.75. Keep those measurements in mind when choosing your spacer or adapter, and fitting them to your vehicle.BLACK SPIDERTRAX WHEEL SPACERSBy the way, in the video, Eric is holding the blue wheel spacers, but they are also made in black, in case you don't want them to be so visible (through your rims).Furthermore, you can browse through our catalog of Jeep wheel spacers and adapters from a wide variety of plans if you are looking for more options.
