Installing 2" Wheel Spacers on my 2020 Chevrolet 2500HD OEM Wheels

[@SeidelRanch]

What do you think? Are you a wheel spacer fan? I don't despise them, I just would rather have a 1 piece wheel instead of 2. One more layer to go wrong. Have you ever had issues? Check out wheel spacers on Amazon: amzn.to/3CI9EBB

[@MikePowell78660]

The kids would say “that fitment is sick”. Looks good! Weird that you can’t torque the wheels to spec.

[@SeidelRanch]

Yeah, the torque thing bugs me but I assume they don't want people torqueing the crap out of it with an impact. I like the way it looks and sits now, but I will have to find out more about the torque specs.

[@craig4926]

so with bora wheel spacers they recommended tightening the spacer to the hub at factory spec but the wheel can only max out at 110 on the spacer as its aluminum

[@SeidelRanch]

Thanks, I will look into that. These could be the same way but I did not see that.

[@craig4926]

@@SeidelRanch yea i got nervous at first but i always torqued them to 140 onto the hubs then wheel to spacer at 110. i towed a shitload of weight too and never any issues. mine were 2inch as well.

[@SeidelRanch]

@@craig4926 Thanks. Hope I can do that as well. Email has been sent to the company to see what they say.

[@davidvargas8892]

It’s been a year since you posted these. Have you had any issues? Thanks in advanced!

[@SeidelRanch]

No issues at all. I just don't let anyone else touch my wheels (rotation, brakes, ...) and make sure they are torqued right.

Adapters without hub centric is safe in heavy duty truck I have 97 gmc suburban 3/4 tons 8 lugs thanks

[@SeidelRanch]

I believe it all depends on the hub and how the wheel sits on it.

[@SeidelRanch]

@Honda K24 fJBlgB You can tell based on how the wheel fits on the hub. Mine were different front and back.

[@LTAJWLU]

I was thinking about the hubcentric spacers however, with these full floating axles, isn’t the loads are distributed on the hubs?

[@SeidelRanch]

@@LTAJWLU It's all based on how the truck is setup. In the rear the hubs align the spacer/wheel to keep them straight. In the front, the hubs do not stick out so the lipped spacers are needed to keep the alignment of the spacer and wheel straight. Either way, the lugs are doing the heavy lifting.

Im running 35x12.50s with factory 20” denali wheels on my 2020 2500hd denali. I just got it and it doesnt seemed to be keyed up any with factory keys. Was wondering if I add these would i rub? Did yours?

[@SeidelRanch]

My 37s rubbed. I did turn up the torsion bars about 4 or 5 cranks. I had to trim my fender liners and the wheel well liners to keep the tires from rubbing. I think even 35s will rub without any modifications, but it should be minor to fix it.

[@joshmatherne1954]

what brand wheel spacers are they?

[@SeidelRanch]

They are Titan branded spacers.

[@AnthonyGonzalez-ws6rj]

How did the front look with just the hub centric spacer on before you had the tire on?

[@SeidelRanch]

If you look at the spacers at the beginning of the video, you will see the two hub centric ones have that extruding lip in the middle. That holds the wheel straight. In the rear it's not needed because the hub sticks out past the spacer already and lines up the wheel. Hope that helps.

[@josetovias5660]

I’m wanting to do the exact same thing man how have they held up compared to a factory ride? Would you recommend?

[@josetovias5660]

???

[@SeidelRanch]

Hey, sorry. Was out of town for a few days. They have been great so far. No vibration or anything. We just got back from driving from Texas to Colorado and back with no issues. So far they have been great. I expect them to do well. Only time will tell though.

[@josetovias5660]

@@SeidelRanch thanks for the feedback will be ordering them soon

[@josetovias5660]

Just got mine in did you have to remove or cute the fenders in the front?

[@SeidelRanch]

Not the fenders, but the mud flap will be in the way and front plastics on the bumper need to be trimmed unless you change the bumper like I did. Did you go with bigger tires?

[@ATOMMIK1969]

what size tires

[@SeidelRanch]

I put on 37s.

[@muddychevy8807]

Are they safe for towing a 10,000 pound trailer

[@SeidelRanch]

I do, but I can't vouch for the true safety of the engineering of it all. I pull 20k behind this truck sometimes.

[@muddychevy8807]

@SeidelRanch I just want a little spacer on the front to offset the leveling kit making the front skinnier than the back

[@SeidelRanch]

@@muddychevy8807 The front should be fine and you can find the shim type that just go over the lugs to push the wheels out more.

[@RandomStuff-zt6qf]

How did it ride?

[@SeidelRanch]

Rides great. I notice no difference in the ride since adding the spacers.

[@bigalforsyth]

so how was clearance in the front after wheels spacers?

[@SeidelRanch]

It helped keep the tires away from the frame really well. I think the frame clearance now is about an inch at full turn. No rubbing there at all. It did put the tires real close to the fender flares to the point I had to trim them some. Now it will only rub the fender flares if I am turning and hitting ruts at the same time. Mostly just when off road like in our pasture or something like that.
