Wheel spacers and Mr SVA

Hi guys, my rear wheel arches look pretty empty, anyone had issues with wheel spacers and SVA.
Cheers,
Bob

Nope, went through SVA last Tuesday with 30mm spacers on the rear, thats 60mm over all!! Wasnt even mentioned.





If its broke, fix it. If it aint broke, take it apart and find out how it works!

Cant see them having any issue.... Provided that your wheel studs/bolts have plenty of available thread to hold the nut inplace!!!

If the wheel looks like it might come into contact with the arch if you fit spacers.... dont! (or leave it till after test if you think you might get collisions)

The solid "competition" type using new longer studs have always been ok -- it is the Cosmic type with stud extenders that were a bit iffy..

I think someone had a problem with spacers (can't rememebr who) but if they are hubcentric if over say 10-15mm and there is enough thread showing on the studs you should be OK
