Review on ZY WHEEL 1 inch 5 Lug Wheel Spacers 5x100 to 5x100 - Subaru Baja Crosstrek Outback Legacy Forester Impreza - Wheel Adapters with M12X1.25 Studs by Derek Helvie

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Subaru Crosstrek 2016 fits and works perfectly!

These black spacers are perfect if you have black wheels. You can't even tell you're using spacers by looking at the wheel, but you do notice a HUGE difference in improved ride quality with bumps, faster cornering and slightly stiffer steering (earlier). sensitive, now the steering is light). My Crosstrek went from a 7 to a 9 in my book. My Crosstrek looks really cool with a 2" wider wheelbase, so now you can see that I have tires that are wider than the stock tires (which will rub on the base of the front shock when going fast up a steep hill, but now it won (an added bonus!) and the cost of the spacers was great! Both the seller and the instructions in the box say 30lbs of torque first, then the factory torque specs which is 90lbs for my 16 year old Crosstrek I went ahead and tightened everything to 95 pounds and also used some red Loctite 271 on each gasket retaining stud (enough to cover 1/2" long and 3/16" wide on the top of each stud), approximately half a drop has spread.) For these spacers +!
