OTG wheel spacers
 

I know this has been mentioned before, but I justed installed the wheel spacers from OTG, and all I can say is WOW! The install is a breeze. The customer service was top notch. And the spacers a real quaility product and the results after the install is just what my Xb needed. I have even noticed improved handling. The car feels much more stable.

So thanks Van at OTG for a great product! :clap:

Van is def. the Man. OTG is a great product line. Win Win!

samhain what wheels are you runnin?
i just put my OTG spacers on today

I have the 17' Flik Wasp's with a 42 offset.

PICS...PICS...PICS!!!!

yes please

I have some old pictures, but I'll get you guys some new ones this weekend.

How long did it take you to do the install?? I emailed Van today regarding the shims. I just picked up my xB today so I am looking into doing this mod. Esp. with the wheels I will be running these would help allot.

Less than an hour.

ya just dont overtighten things or they will break...

i snapped the bolt for the parking brake cable bracket

what a fun fix that one was

Does anyone know what the torque rating is on those bolts??

I will be using a airgun to do the install. Just want to make sure I dont over torque.

If you even need bolt specs, you can use the following link.

http://www.engineershandbook.com/Tables/torque.htm

And there are links on that page to other types of fasteners as well.

The instructions will have the torque specs needed to do the install. Don't use airtools. Make sure you have a torque wrench

Ok cool.. So no air tools. I guess I'll be doing it by hand. I have a torque wrench so thats not a problem. I just dont want to over torque the bolts.

Thanks

Deffinitely don't over torque the p-brake bracket and the abs wire bracket. I managed to break the stud that's welded on for the abs wire bracket.............while using a torque wrench I might add. Bought a new one that it works a little different than I was expecting, so snap went the stud. had to drill it out and chisel off the little flange thing that was left behind. I used a grade 8 screw/bolt in the newly drilled hole and momentarily thought about doing the same thing to the other side, then I got smart and didn't touch it.

It took me about 45 minutes to install the first side side, but less than 30 minutes to do the next side.

man i put those spacer on my xb.i didnt have to read the instruction they gave me cuz i read and looked at the pics on the otg site. so wen they came in,it was a piece of cake. but then afterwards i lookd at the directions they gave me and they were pretty on point.i give otg 5 stars haha.
