Wheel spacers for gs450h can they cause any harm?
Hi everyone from previous i have wheel spacers in my car front wheels only,
can this thing damage my suspention tyres or something else i am asking because i recently saw that my shocks are dead and leaking as well... can this wheel spacers be the cause of my troubles , what issues and damage can wheel spacer do ?
I have also brand new pilot sport 4s tyres which are quite expensive and from abroad i dont want to ruin them as well here roads in bg are full with potholes and tyres and suspension probably wont last a lot..

i
attached picture of my wheel spacer its the metal thing close to my brake disk, can wheel spacers cause bad wheel alignment or tyres to be eated or something else i never had wheel spacers.How worn is my brake disk and pads should i replace them ?

Yes, they can cause harm, but normally not to shocks. By moving wheels outward, you can put more strain on ball joints and wheel bearings. These look thin so added stress to those components are minimal. They will put more stress on the studs cause they will have that much less threads to engage the wheels.

those spacers are not hub centric or lug centric, you must get some serious vibration when driving.
look at the space arond the outside of the hub in relation to the spacer, same with the studs.Take those off and throw them in the garbage

Yes i have serious vibration when i drive the car i was thinking its the tyres balance or something if spacers are removed should i make another suspention alignment or not?
these spacers are from previous owner he was stupid person broke most of the things of the car what effect you can achieve with that spacers? How are my brake disk and pads are how much life left in them? Is it time for new ones?

Just start with removing them and cleaning up the corrosion that must be underneath them then drive it, I think you should be able to look at your own brakes....front pads when new are around 10mm, go from there.

Since most of my hub bolts are dead , and gone etcs...
I will replace them , i bought brand new hub bolts, but i have an issue,
i cant remove my spacers because that way i cant fit my front alloy wheels.... due to my big brake calipers i guess my alloy wheels are from lexus is f sport this is what i think here is picture of my alloy wheels, i dont have this issue on the back only in the front.
i posted picture of my alloy wheels, what i can do in order to fit my current alloy wheels without spacers or fix them somehow permanently in order not to have broken wheel hub bolts again i bought genuine hub bolts and they are quite expensive + labour...
it cost me around 250$ total.
They are hard to find as well they was imported,from abroad, what is my option? I cant afford another set of alloy wheels i need suggestion for permanent fix is there such, may be better spacers or something?
