Spacers for Magneride

[Hoofprint]

When I look at spacers they typically state something like:
“Due to the increased length of the original wheel studs, these Wheel Spacers will NOT fit vehicles that are equipped with the factory MagneRide suspension.”

I believe I saw somewhere that someone put spacers on a Magneride car without cutting the studs.

can anyone confirm fitment or not of spacers with magneride?

All these questions about spacers not understanding why the need for longer studs when Magnaride is on the car. (Spelling wrong sorry)

So you wrote more words to admit your spelling was wrong than just spelling it right in the first place

Thanks for the reply, but can you tell me what the reason is the studs are longer when the car has MAGNERIDE?
I had actually forgotten how to spell MAGNERIDE. That is quite funny.
But I really don't know why the longer studs.

Is there anyone that can 100% verify the studs are longer on Magneride?

I would much rather go with spacers than new wheels…cutting the studs just doesn’t seem, to me, like something I want to do.

I am seeing on a Facebook post someone has Magneride and PP and was able to use 25mm spacers without cutting the studs, due to the back of the PP wheel having “pockets” that the lugs fit into.

Can anyone confirm 25mm spacers work with Magneride, if you have PP wheels?

Everything I've gathered is that 25mm studs work fine for Magneride. I've even seen some posts that 20mm studs work. I just picked up some 20mm studs as I think 25 sticks out too much and will see what happens. I'll update when I install in a week or so.

@bgold87 did you get the spacers on yet?

Not yet, Christmas and the kiddos slowed down my progress Hopefully this week.

I bought 25mm spacers.

Do all the nuts (all 10 per wheel) still get torqued to 150? Just want to make sure the studs on the spacers can handle it…if that is even something to be concern about(?).

Just a heads for everyone. I’ve seen where some people say you can run 20mm spacers on a magneride car and they’ve had no issues. If this is you then you should check them again. Just installed H&R supersports and steeda 20mm spacers and at first it looked flush. Spent a lot of time getting different angles and can 100% confirm 20mm do NOT work, it’s hard AF to see. Most angles it looks flush. I know most are running 25mm, but I’m case anyone thinks you can do 20mm, you can’t.

Thanks for confirming 20mm do not fit! With what you experienced, do you believe 25mm will fit? I haven’t gotten around to trying mine yet.

Alternatively you can ease up on these massive spacers and just use a 9 or 10 mm spacer combined with 10 mm shaft nuts.

This is a German vendor, but I'm sure with a bit of search you will find similar products in the USA too:

Confirmed, 25mm spacers fit on a PP with Magnaride. S650 PP wheels have a pocket that fits over the exposed studs.

Awesome!!! Can you take a pic from the rear so I can see how far out the rears are pushed? Also, what spacers did you get?
