By extending the distance between the hub assembly and the wheel, JK wheel spacers, which are installed on the wheel assembly, enable the wheel to be moved farther out. The wheel spacers come with studs that secure the spacer to the wheel assembly and bolts that fit the holes in the tire hub. The wheel is fastened to the vehicle via studs passing through the spacer.
You don’t need to change the hub assembly because the wheel spacer is fastened. Installing wheel spacers causes the gap between the two wheels to grow. Here is a quick look at some of the benefits of Jeep JKU wheel spacers.
Increased Handling
Wheel spacers provide the advantage of enhancing handling for individuals who appreciate the driving experience. Wheel spacers increase the gap between the left and right wheels, making the vehicle more stable and improving cornering performance, handling, and grip.
Bigger Brake Calipers
Some Jeep owners may swap out the factory brakes for higher-performance ones to improve stopping power. However, these brakes are often broader than the factory ones. At this point, adding top-quality JK wheel spacers might create room for bigger calipers.
Larger and Wider Tires
Nothing is more thrilling for people who spend a lot of time on the road than the ability to adapt bigger tires with wheel spacers for greater grip and handling. Off-road enthusiasts also like replacing their factory tires with bigger ones. Wheel spacers are necessary to prevent these wider/larger tires from rubbing against the wheel wells or fenders.
