I never really understood wheel spacers, I mean I know what they do and they usually work but would never want to change the design of the car that much (at least the wheels which are a huge safety factor) to have to rely on another third party product to make sure my wheels stay on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I wanted to get some nice deep 9" deep dish wheels for my car but the only way I could do it was with a spacer so I ended up just getting one that would fit without them even though they don't look at nice.

Consider yourself lucky this did not happen while going 80+ on the highway or it could have been much worse.
