Any issues with different size wheel spacers on the front compared to the back?

    I am considering picking up a set of Bora wheel spacers. My question is would everything be okay if I went with a 1-inch spacer in the front and a three-quarter inch spacer in the rear? I'm assuming everything would be okay but I just want to make sure. Reason being is for it looks like the fronts are tucked in some a little more than the rears and I wanted to match it up best I can. After the alignment nightmare I went through and finally getting it aligned properly my tires got pulled in a little bit more in the front. I miss that more aggressive look:D

    the problem with wheel spacers is more about the stress on wheel bearings, ball joints and wheel studs. personally i would probably use the same offset front and rear but it's your vehicle.

    Marc, shouldn't be a problem at all. As far as wear on your bearings, a 1" / 3/4" spacer is not gonna effect them. You get into trouble going with 2" + spacers that push your wheel out that much farther. I have some gearhead buddies at work that mix match there spacers. My opinion of course. :thumbsup:

    I have had spacers in the past with no issues. Just not different sizes.
