In some countries it is ILLEGAL to use spacers, Im sure you can work out why...
sadly people still make and sell them as peeps who dont understand still buy them

Longer bolts, wheels that dont sit on hub square, , more strain on bolts etc.
Why dont peeps just get the Correct wheel set up and not try to hobble something not made for the job. I see so many unroadworthy vehicles and accidents from mods .
Sorry I needed to vent but its just plain ignorance.
