Venum Wheel Spacers

Hey,

Just wondering if anyone has experience with these inexpensive spacers?

Amazon sells them for $115 for front and rear with extended bolts. Material is 6061T6 aluminum, hub centric and grade 10.9 bolts.

You can get 12/10mm or 15/12mm

I don’t want to be a cheap arse but wondering if anyone has ran these before. Specs seem legit.

Amazon is flooded with cheap Chinese stuff so be cautious. I'm not saying that these are crap.

Interested to see if anyone has tried them

I may just be the guinea pig for the forum and give it a try. I have access to a CMM at work so I can inspect them prior to installation.

Macht Schnell spacers are essentially the same price and come with fasteners. Why not go with a proven brand?

I think the price OP said is for 2 axles. MS is about that price for 1 axle

Ah, missed that.

OP: Be careful, you might get what you pay for.

That wouldn't cover the quality of the extended lug bolts. That would be my biggest concern. They can have all the markings of a 10.9 but who knows if they really are?

I would recommend only buying spacers with notches for prying the spacer off the hub with a flathead without marring the hell out of the hub.
