Post by: NosFEratu on March 02, 2012, 04:12:26 PM I think you will find they have been illegal in every state for many years unless they are provided by the OEM.

(http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt179/john253a/sdgfdfgsdfhgtf.png) but theis are classed as wheel adaptors, and when purchased from most tyre shops they come with the paperwork and report (http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt179/john253a/untitledsdfgsdfgsfgh.jpg) Title: Re: These legal? Post by: black57 on April 05, 2012, 10:18:56 PM John is right on the money there. I was in the tyre game for years as a tech trainer for Bob Jane T-Marts. the difference is that the adaptors are fitted directly to the hub, while the spacers are really just a giant washer and can cause the wheel to work loose under load.
