They do create stress on the factory suspension and hubs as they widen the track and increase the leverage. Be sure you get quality ones if you do go this route

so that would eventually lead to wear is what your saying?

Yes, and if you drive hard or race even quicker....

Think of it as adding a longer lever arm. Say the pivot point to the centerline of the wheel is 10" and you add 1" spacers, you have increased the action on the suspension by 10%. The result being the shocks and struts will be proportionally less effective and stress on the rest of the suspension components will be increased.

I need to add 2" spacers on the widebody to fill the front fenders, just haven't popped for the 2 bills to do it yet.
