Are you talking about the kind that bolt to the hub, then the rim bolts to the spacer. Or just a piece a metal that sits in between the rim and hub?

I got a set of the ones that bolt to the hub and then your rim bolts to the spacer and I will say they where plenty beefy. What made me feel even better about them is they use them one SUV's to change lug patterns without any problems. The ones I got where 1.25" thick.
But they sent me the wong ones and I had to send them back, still waiting for the correct ones to show up.


They are cut from billit, and every where a bolt goes the alum. is thick than it on the wheel. So I would be more worried about the lug pulling though the rim than one of these spacers.

BTW, if this is not the kind you where asking about, just ignore it all. lol
