FK Hubcentric Spacers - Hairline Crack....

[Bloooor]

I have just had a lok at them as I was about to put them on with my new wheels and saw a crack around the prt of the spacer that aligns the wheel to it. Would this be dangerous to use or not as it only seems ot align the wheel not support it as thats what the bolts are for

Some pics, you can see the split going around the part of the spacer that sticks out.

Adam :dapprove:

id use them...

 

[Bloooor]

Yeh think I will, just abit devo'd for the amount of money I paid for them

Is it worth the risk? I think M8EDJ was being sarcastic.haha

 

[MarcoB]

i wasnt being sarcastic, thats only the equivalent to the plastic thing you normally get with your wheels. I cant remember the name atm .. sprocket maybe?

 

[Bloooor]

worth what risk?

If that piece was to come off there would still be the 4 bolts holding it in place? That only aligns the wheel IIRC

 

[The Boosh!]

Bloor, can you see through the gap? or is it just a scratch ?

If you can see through it then im unsure, may be ok on the rear wheels?

Can you not just get some one to put a bit of a weld in there to help it along

i personally wouldnt risk it lad, but i dont think it will make a lot of difference.

i would use on the rear tbf.

jamie

Its a gap dude.

If someone was to weld it shut I don't think they would fit perfectly onto my wheels like they used to unlss it was sanded down to EXACTLY how it should be... seems like a lot of work for something small

 

[JD]

wouldnt touch it with a weld lad, like you say, could mess it up more.

i thinking of selling mine soon to get a smaller size as my tyres rub when i have people in the back (not often )

 

[MarcoB]

As soon as your wheel gets airgunned on that crack isnt going to be there! Ive seen worse spacers...

 

[Bloooor]

yeh me to, mate of mine has 15mm so might try and buy those from him tbh... 20mm seems abit much for ET37s

 

[JD]

yeah well i have same wheels as your old ones (still tempted by the white uns )

have to see

 

[Bloooor]
