this is if you arent using hubcentric spacers... yes that stupid...

Or if your using old ass bearings from a 1956 ford on a spindle...

A spacer is nothing more than additional offset(actually decreasing our stock offset). Rims all come with different "spacers"...

3s's need alot of offset/spline size to clear the brakes... thusly we dont have huge amount of cars with huge deep dish rims.

My 3 piece forged rims have a built in "spacer" that lets me adjust the offset on the rim simply by putting a different size in... is it a spacer? yep... but its the rim.

Here's a good read...

Wow actual racers suggesting using spacers?

Here's a pimp Willwood 2 inch spacer (its actually a "adapter") but hey...



Wide is good
