Default 5mm Hubcentric Spacers $50

***SOLD***

Up for grabs is a great set of 5mm spacers for the Crossfire. These are like new and are a perfect fit...not the one size fits all crap being sold on ebay. Great little mod if you want to get a more agressive stance from your Crossfire. First $50 gets them!

Fits all models. Will accept paypal. Free shipping in the lower 48 states.

Many of us run spacers without issues.

It is a liablility thing due to it not being stock. They do add a little more stress to the suspension but it is minimal and as long as you adjust your bolts length accordingly, you will be fine.

Well, there will be more force on the bearings by pushing the wheels out further. The bearings are designed to be inline with the center of the wheel, meaning that the loads will be primarily radial loads. When you move the wheel out, you will be creating an off centered load against the bearings. This can cause premature bearing wear. Having said that, most of us use 10 - 15 mm spacers. 15 mm is roughly 1/2 an inch, so I do not think that little of an offset would be much of a concern.

Not sure about longer lug nuts...... LOL, but yes.... you would need longer lug bolts. The bolts would need to be longer by the same as the thickness of the spacers. Here is a good and very affordable place to get lug bolts:
