Default Wheel Spacers

Hi all,

Have any of you fitted wheel spacers, I don't have a problem with the arches fouling, but do like the look of the wide stance? Do you guys know if they are safe, is handling helped or hindered any info would be appreciated

Thanks

Thanks mate I'm with ya, I've seen some 20mm spacers that would give an overall 40mm wider sance, I doubt anyone would notice 5mm. How wide do you think you could go before it weakens the clamping force from wheel to hub?
