FAQs

What is PCD?

PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter, which is the diameter of a circle that passes through the center of all the wheel studs or bolts.

How do I measure my vehicle's PCD?

You can measure the PCD by measuring the distance between two opposite studs or bolts. Alternatively, you can find this information in your vehicle's manual or online.

Are wheel spacers safe?

Wheel spacers are safe when installed correctly and used with appropriate wheels and tires. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and torque specifications.

Will these spacers fit my vehicle?

The Grayston Universal Wheel Spacer Kit is designed to fit a wide range of vehicles. However, it's essential to check the compatibility of the stud pattern (PCD) and thread size before purchase.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a jack, jack stands, a wheel wrench, a torque wrench, and possibly a socket set.

Do I need to get my wheels aligned after installing spacers?

It is recommended that you get your wheels aligned after installing wheel spacers to ensure proper handling and tire wear.

How often should I check the wheel bolts after installation?

Check the wheel bolts after the initial drive and then periodically. If you engage in spirited driving, check them more often.

Troubleshooting

Wheel vibration after installation.

Check if the wheel is correctly centered on the spacer and that the wheel bolts are torqued to the correct specification. Also, check for any debris between the spacer and the hub or the wheel and the spacer.

Wheel bolts not fitting correctly.

Ensure you are using the correct wheel bolts for the spacer and wheel combination. In some cases, longer wheel bolts may be required.

Spacers not fitting the hub.

Verify the hub size compatibility and ensure that the spacers match your vehicle's specifications. If necessary, consult with a professional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Compatibility Check: Verify the stud pattern (PCD) and thread size (M12x1.25) of your vehicle. Ensure that the kit is compatible with your vehicle's make and model. Check the kit's specifications to ensure it matches your requirements.
  2. Installation: Remove the wheel. Screw the extension studs into the existing mounting holes. Place the spacer over the studs. Reinstall the wheel using the original wheel bolts, tightening them to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.
  3. Torque Specifications: Always use a torque wrench to tighten the wheel bolts. Refer to your vehicle's manual for the correct torque specifications. This is crucial for safety and preventing wheel detachment.
  4. Post-Installation Check: After the initial drive, re-torque the wheel bolts. Regularly check the bolts for tightness, especially after aggressive driving or track use.
  5. Care: Inspect the spacers regularly for any signs of damage or wear. Ensure that the wheel and tire combination clears all suspension components and the wheel arches.
  6. Important Note: These spacers should only be used if suitable for the application. If unsure about fitting, please consult a professional mechanic.
