Re: Wheel spacer question

Thanks Joe, once again, I am learning as I go.

No, the space is between the back side of the spacer and the face of the front hub. I will take it apart and look again, but it didn't seem to be hitting the hat over the bearings.

I did strip the internal threads on a mag lug when I tried to tighten it down on the spacer. The spacer is definitely metric. The lug on the front hub and the rears for that matter are all 1/2" x 20. The mag lugs fit good to the studs, but to make sure I got out the trusty bolt/nut sizers, metric and sae. The S10 lugs are 1/2". The lugs on the spacer - metric, like 1.25 or close.

I read a number of write ups and they said "hubcentric is the way to go".

I like the spacer, the tires look good a little wider. I don't trust the spacer with the gap, so it looks like I'll be ordering a new set.
