Beginner's Guide to Installing Wheel Spacers on Tesla Model Y - BONOSS Tesla Fitment Guide

  • 2 months ago
If this is your first time fitting Tesla Model Y wheel spacers on your vehicle, this video will help. Tesla Model Y wheel spacers are devices that fit between the wheel hub and the wheel, creating a gap that pushes the wheel outward. This can reduce the wheel's offset, which is the distance between the wheel's centerline and the hub's mounting surface. A lower offset can increase your Tesla Model Y's track width, which is the distance between the centerlines of your left and right wheels. This can improve the stability, cornering, and appearance of your Tesla Model Y.

Installing wheel spacers on your Tesla Model Y is not a simple plug-and-play process. You need to make sure that you choose the right size and type of wheel spacers for your Tesla Model Y and install them properly and securely. Otherwise, you risk damaging your wheels, tires, suspension, brakes or even causing an accident.

In this video, we will show you step-by-step how to fit wheel spacers on your Tesla Model Y correctly and safely. Before we begin, make sure you have the following tools and materials.

A jack and jack stands
A wheel lug wrench and torque wrench
An impact wrench
A wire brush or sandpaper
A set of hub-centric wheel spacers that match your Tesla Model Y's bolt pattern, hub bore, and desired thickness.

00:00A great way to improve the performance and appearance of your Tesla Model Y is by installing wheel spacers.
00:09However, it is important to choose the right type of spacers, and ensure that they are installed correctly to avoid any negative effect.
00:17Let's take a look at the correct installation steps.
00:20Use a cross wrench to loosen the lug nut on the side of the wheel in a diagonal sequence,
00:26but do not remove them completely, using just to support each end of the car is a better safety measure.
00:32Use a cross wrench to remove the wheel side lug nut.
00:36Remove the wheel of the hub and set it to the side.
00:39Look at the wheel hub assembly for rust, you can use a brake cleaner to remove them.
00:44Remove any rust and dirt from the wheel hub with a rag.
00:47Widen the entire surface to ensure it is smooth, because all of that surface may cause the wheel spacer to not fit perfectly with the hub.
00:55Install the Bonus Forge FT Cooling Tesla Model Y Wheel Spacers, then install the matching lug nuts.
01:02Tighten them with a torque wrench.
01:05A key advantage of Bonus Tesla Model Y Wheel Spacers is the FT Cooling feature.
01:10These wheel spacers are designed with petal-shaped grooves.
01:13The grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the spacer when it rotates.
01:18The air takes away the heat.
01:20After dissipating heat for the braking system, all Bonus Tesla Model Y Wheel Spacers are forged.
01:26In addition, high-precision Tesla Model Y Wheel Spacers provide high surface integrity,
01:32effectively guarantee safety, stability, and reliability, and ensure a smooth installation experience.
01:39Install the ring and then install the lug nuts.
01:42Use a torque wrench to tighten them on the wheel.
01:45Make sure they are secure.
01:47Remove the jack stands.
01:48Slowly lower the car until the tires fully touch the ground, and remove the jack.
01:53Use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts to the specific torque.
01:58The same operation is done for the remaining wheels.
02:01After installing the Tesla Model Y Wheel Spacers, drive slowly back and forth,
02:06ensuring the rings are turned a few times.
02:08Bonus recommends checking the use of the wheel spacers every 6 months,
02:12and checking the vehicle's operation to ensure safe driving.
02:18If you want to get the wheel spacers, please make sure to see the link in the description.
02:23Thanks for watching and have a great day!
