Description

Wheel spacers are critical components for car enthusiasts who want to improve the handling and appearance of their cars by widening the offset of the wheels for greater stability and a better grip, on the road and on the track.When it comes to making racing cars lighter, every ounce counts. Athena, a leader in the production and design of spare parts for the automotive market, has designed a range of lightweight wheel spacers especially for motor racing competitions, studied to offer maximum performance on the track without sacrificing strength and safety.

The lightweight version combines the proven strength of Athena spacers with a significant lightening of unsprung masses, further decreasing inertia for a smoother, higher-performance ride. The lighter weight also helps to reduce the overall load on the suspension for better responsiveness and optimal handling, even when cornering at full speed.Athena lightweight wheel spacers are the result of the careful work of our R&D Department, which studied the right balance between lightness and maximum safety, reliability and strength, and the most suitable materials and production technologies.

These products are made from top quality extruded aluminum bar, machined with innovative technologies and with the best numerical control machine tools to ensure tight manufacturing tolerances and maximum precision. This production process, which involves no casting points, is what gives Athena spacers their unbeatable resistance to wear.

Why buy an Athena spacer? What are the advantages of spacers?
Spacers are made using the best quality of aluminium and the kits contain, if applicable, Italian-made 10.9 class bolts. Athena spacers are specifically tailored to each vehicle and the bolted versions include the proper bolts for each application, making life easier for the end user (no worries about choosing the wrong type of bolts).Athena has all the technical know-how and equipment for making any customised spacer on site.

Are wheel spacers legal?
Mounting spacers alters the homologated technical characteristics of the car. Before mounting, therefore, you must check whether this modification is allowed by your country's highway code. Otherwise, you can only use them in closed areas or on a track.
Athena spacers, made entirely with the best aluminium alloys, are for sporting use only. Athena cannot be held responsible for any damage deriving from incorrect use or incorrect assembly of the spacer. Mounting these products could void the vehicle manufacturer's warranty.
How to fit the spacers correctly?Mounting them requires basic knowledge of automotive mechanics and must be done in a workmanlike manner in order to ensure your safety. For this reason, we recommend that you always have them properly mounted by specialist centres and skilled experts.
1) Clean the wheel hubs PERFECTLY using a wire brush. Support surfaces and all parts in contact with the spacers must not show any traces of oxidation (the steel must be bare);
2) Clean in the same way the inside of the wheel rim on the part that will come into contact with the spacer; If the wheel bearing grease cap occupies space, it must be removed and reassembled in the centre of the spacer after this has been mounted;
3) After having perfectly cleaned the wheel hubs, position the spacers to check their application (wheelbase, hub diameter and bolt thread); The spacers must rest perfectly against the surface of the brake disc or drum, in full contact. The spacers must be positioned parallel to the hub. Positioning the spacer at an angle could block it and cause it to break;
4) Check the length of the bolts and then definitively tighten the spacer.
5) Mount the spacer on the wheel hub by mounting the rim and tightening the nuts or bolts supplied crosswise, using a torque wrench.
6) You must follow the instructions of the vehicle manufacturer or aftermarket producer of the rims to define the tightening torques of the bolts.
7) After tightening, with the vehicle still on the ramp, turn the wheel by hand to make sure it rotates freely without any impediment.
8) Bring the vehicle back down to the ground and tighten the wheels to the torque specified by the manufacturer (using a torque wrench)
9) Check once again that the tyres do not come into contact with any mechanical or bodywork element by steering left and right and shifting the car a few meters.
10) Check the tightness of the spacers and wheels after running in for about 100km.

What to always check to avoid risks?
• Always check the correct tyre pressure
• Check that the fastening bolts are tightened according to the table provided by the manufacturer.
• Check that the tyres do not rub against the bodywork
• Check tyre wear from time to time to make sure toe and camber are correct.
• Check the state of nuts and bolts once or twice a year and always at each tyre change, replacing them if necessary
• If involved in an accident, replace the wheel spacers immediately
• Strictly follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations should repairs be needed
