Spacing the wheels.
 
Hi, i have read previous thread about that subjet and i'm still asking myself
that if i space the wheels front/back if i will still see the difference between
the two like the back end will still be narrower then the the front wheels and
will it dammage something or prematuraly used the tires 'cause im with orginal
suspension and wheels???

Thank you!, '00BlackBlzr

RE: Spacing the wheels.
 
If you space them the same, how do you expect the difference to be any more or less? You will need thicker spacers in the back if you wanted to make the track width the same front to back.

There will be increased load on the wheel bearings by spacing the wheels out further. Results vary concerning increased wear and it really is hit or miss.

Spacing out the wheels should have no impact on the tires themselves if everything in the alignment is proper to begin with.
