    anti-seize was the only thing you did wrong, it's the equivalent of spreading some mud between your rotor top hat and rim, you don't want there to be anything between the rim and mounting surface its attached to. if your that worried about corrosion simply clean/paint the rotor and hub assembly. Most people should never have to worry about wheels being seized to the hubs, most people change they're tires ever 3-4 years and as long as you actually wash your car your fine.

    Excellent video Milan! BTW aluminium doesn't corrode the way you think it does. The corrosion is called aluminium oxide which turns to a really hard layer (surface). That hard layer actually protects the aluminium from further corrosion. Not saying the added insurance isn't necessary because I would do the same thing your doing.

    not sure about the handling being better when the car and wheels were designed to be what they are, but by using spacers you also have the issue of wheel rub, which can result in tires exploding.

      Its all good Ken! Ensure you use your torque wrench twice, once to install the spacer to the hub, then the wheel to the spacer 👍

    hey man great vid thanks, i have a 06 grand cherokee with aftermarket 20" inch Novakane wheels, i want to add 38 mm or 50 mm spacers to JUST the back wheels to give it a very aggressive staggered stance? the back wheels dont turn so i cant see an issue with rubbing. My main question is, is it okay to use the wider spacers to just the back wheels. The wheels already sit past the fenders because they are aftermarket, but i want more!!

    • @milanmastracci
      @milanmastracci  8 лет назад

      +vanessa campbell it is okay, but I would be careful with your local laws. Most provinces/states will fail you and ticket you if your wheel is protruding past the fender. As a mechanical standpoint, you can do it, but from a legal standpoint, get ready to fork out some money from tickets. :)

      I'm sure you know by now but since no one ever answered your question the wheel wells are wider in the back so to make it flush he used bigger ones in the back. A lot of sports cars use wider tires in the back to keep it flush with the wheel wells

      Sure did!! After about 100 miles of driving, you should remove the wheel, re-torque the spacer to the hub, and then re-install the wheel onto the spacer. I'm yet to run into any problems with this setup 😊

      It varies from car to car. The best way to find out what size you would like is to measure on your car where you would like to to sit. That would be the size of spacer you would then need to buy :)

      With the torque wrench, you will hear a click. Once you hear that click, it means you've reached your desired torque spec, and you have to stop tightening.

  • @jeremygreathouse9193
    @jeremygreathouse9193 8 лет назад

    instead of having someone press the brakes to torque the spacer down use a jack stand with a rag on top sand rest one of the studs on it so that's it didn't turn while torqing them down. the rag is so the threads on the students don't get messed up. this is what I have done on my car for them and it works great. I also have to do this when changing my brake rotors as I have screws that hold them in place.

      Be sure to get some wider rims to make sure that you're not adding any uneven pressure on your wheel bearings. Wheel spacers alone will put more force on to one side of the bearing than it's designed for, which leads to them wearing down faster and possibly damaging them over bumps.
