FAQs

Will these spacers fit my Land Rover Discovery 2?

The WINCHMAX T1 spacers are specifically designed for Land Rover Defender (1990-2016), Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic. Compatibility with Discovery 2 or other models is not guaranteed and should be verified.

Do I need longer wheel studs?

It depends on your specific vehicle and wheel combination. If your original wheel studs protrude through the spacer by more than a few threads, you will likely need longer wheel studs for safe installation. Always check for adequate thread engagement.

Can I install these myself?

Yes, installation can be performed by a competent DIYer. However, if you are not comfortable with automotive work, it is recommended to have them installed by a professional mechanic.

How do I clean the aluminum spacers?

Clean the spacers with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or corrode the aluminum.

What is the benefit of wider track width?

A wider track width can improve vehicle stability, particularly during cornering and on uneven surfaces. It also provides increased clearance for larger tires and can enhance the vehicle's aesthetic appeal.

Are these spacers sold individually?

No, the WINCHMAX T1 spacers are sold as a set of four, providing enough for one complete vehicle.

What is the warranty on these spacers?

Please refer to the retailer or WINCHMAX documentation for specific warranty information, as it may vary.

Troubleshooting

Vibration at speed

Ensure spacers are correctly and evenly seated on the hub. Re-torque lug nuts to specification. Check if wheel balance is still correct after installation.

Rubbing noise from wheels

Verify that the spacers are not causing interference with brake calipers, suspension components, or the fender liner. Ensure the correct spacer thickness was chosen for your setup.

Lug nuts not tightening sufficiently

This may indicate the need for longer wheel studs. Ensure the spacer thickness and your wheel's backspacing are compatible with your existing studs.

Difficulty mounting spacer

Ensure the hub surface is clean and free of debris. The spacer should slide on smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check: Before installation, it is crucial to verify that the WINCHMAX T1 Aluminium Wheel Spacers are compatible with your specific vehicle model and year. Ensure that the hub bore matches your vehicle's hub and that there is sufficient clearance for your brake calipers and any suspension components. It is recommended to consult your vehicle's manual or a professional if unsure.

Installation:

  1. Ensure the vehicle is safely parked on a level surface with the parking brake engaged.
  2. Loosen the lug nuts on all wheels.
  3. Safely lift and support the vehicle using jack stands.
  4. Remove the wheel.
  5. Clean the hub surface thoroughly.
  6. Mount the spacer onto the hub, ensuring it sits flush.
  7. Reinstall the original wheel studs or extended studs if required. Ensure proper thread engagement. *Note: Longer wheel studs may be necessary if the original studs protrude through the spacer.*
  8. Hand-tighten the lug nuts.
  9. Repeat for all wheels.
  10. Once all spacers are installed, lower the vehicle.
  11. Torque the lug nuts to your vehicle manufacturer's specifications in a star pattern.

Torque Check: After driving approximately 50-100 miles, re-torque all lug nuts to ensure they remain secure.

Care: Clean the spacers periodically with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the aluminum finish. Regularly inspect for any signs of damage or wear.
