Nay and nay.

Since you really want to run extended brackets, Megan is the only company that offers them and fits your budget.

They completely suck but hey, you get what you pay for. And to answer your initial question 60mm allows for a 2.5-2.75" safe range for spacers. That 3" range is a little sketchy.

My suggestion would be to get your wheels done with less offset.

.

I dont understand what this means (the numerics).

Thanks in advance for your explanation.


BTW, i might as well just rebarrel the wheels.

60mm is about 2.36", I misinformed you in my initial post. My fault.

17mm to inches is about 0.66".

2.36" is not the widest spacer that you can run, that about how much room you'll have to work with. Your range should be shorter than the 60mm studs themselves for that structural piece of mind.

I would say 1.75"-2.25" range so ~44 mm to ~57MM.

If you ran a 57mm worth of spacing, how would you mount the wheel? 3mm of threads?

Oh I wasn't under the impression that we were talking about sketchy ass slip on spacers. I was referring to the safer ones that bolt on.

He'll be trimming studs if he uses bolt ons. Unless the wheel mounting location has clearence for additional studs.

Am I missing something here?

I (along with another person) suggested getting the wheels fixed in terms of offset. Running huge ass spacers is stupid. He asked for sizes in his original post so I provided with that anyway.

Anybody with common sense would not run spacers that big.
