I know alot of guys on here are against them,but how come conversion van companys for FORD use them on the rears to space them out to handle better.My dad has a 2006 e350 pleasureway and they are made out of steel on the back,they bolt on,you torque them down then the rim goes on after that.And there hubcentric too.And thats a pretty heavy van.
Even if you used them on the rear ,since the rears are always in anyway to bring them out to match the fronts.say 1 1/2 inch.Just asking.

The new type of spacers are perfectly safe. They bolt on like the wheel does and they have thier own studs that the wheel bolts to. Lots of high performance cars use them as well and dont have any probs.
