Jesse J Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 my truck came with some spacers/adapters 4.5x5 to 5x5 so they could put on some gladiator wheels(opinions on these bad boys?) and i've heard they aren't safe also the studs don't go all the way through the nut.

Pete M Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 that are perfectly safe if it passes the 3 rules: -quality product (used to mean top-o'-the-line only, but in the past decade the offbrands have really stepped up their game) -hub-centric (meaning the spacer fits tight against the little bumpout from the hub and bears the weight) -torqued to spec using blue locktight on the original studs holding the spacer (not on the new studs that grip your wheels) no one else's opinion matters when it comes to wheels. it's all about what you want. also, the nuts cover the vast majority of the stud so I feel that part is fine. just don't go jumping your truck.
