    Wheel Spacers...

    Thinking of getting some of these for the rear wheels of my Ibiza. Do they improve the handling much (if at all)? Given they're moving the weight of the wheel away from the centre of the hub, has anyone experienced wheel bearings failing more frequently with these fitted, and are they any...

    hi, have had my 15mm wheel spacers on for about a week, my passenger side rear wheel appears to be squeaking. Could this just need more copper grease or is it a sign my wheel bearing is going/gone?
