Bora 3/4" wheel spacers

[kevgentile]

How recently did you order these? I ordered fronts and rears back in November and what I received didn't have the hub centric ring and I was assured that what I received was correct and hubcentric (see pictures above). I'm very confused why I would have received something different.

Might be too late to return them, but def don't test fit since they'll be deemed "used"

I'm sure if you both reach out to Bora and discuss the issue they'll work something out. Especially since they
get a lot of recommendation and feedback from mud.

You'll be fine. The ones with the hubcentric ring will fit the rear and the one w/o will fit the fronts.

Will the wheel still center itself on the hub?

Very strange how @YotaWagon and I ordered the same thing and got two different items.

The front wheels will not center itself when you place it on the adapter. But the Mag style lug nuts will center the wheel.

We've previously discussed in depth whether this vehicle is lug centric or hub centric and I'd say it is not purely in either category. It would be difficult to NOT center the wheels using the OE lug nuts. But using the steel wheels, I would say it is hubcentric because the lug nuts are a different style and it would be possible to mount off-center. Having hub centric ring is indeed nicer but not necessary. I've been running non-hubcentric wheel adapter for almost 20 years w/o issue. The adapter is hubcentric to the hub though.

Those 3/4" adapter with hubcentric ring should fit the front and rear of the LC200 and Tundra.... and so I could see the confusion on their part. But I imagine they have a database on all their possible fitments.

I plan to use Rock Warrior wheels with the 3/4" spacers and they use a cone seat style lug nut. Are you saying that I won't have an issue with that setup?

There shouldn’t be an issue but the install is not idiot proof. Just make sure you hand tighten the lugs and jostle the wheel to ensure it’s centered on the lug nuts before torquing down.

I got a set of 3/4" BORA spacers back in November and was concerned when they got here since they didn't have the typical teeth for the front spacers. I called to ask and I can't remember the conversation well but he assured me that what I got was correct. I currently run 1.25" spacers but got them because I want to maintain the exact same tire poke when I go to a different size wheel and tire. I haven't test fit them and probably won't until I'm switching setups so I guess I'm kind of crossing my fingers that they work as BORA assured me they would. It doesn't feel like they're going to work. I'm not sure why they would have this as an option. I remember asking specifically if they were hubcentric but it seems like without the teeth how would they be?

I run a set of 3/4" BORA spacers like that. No teeth. Zero problems after years of running them with RW wheels.

FWIW, I did the same thing -- called to confirm. He assured me that what I got was correct.

I'm following this thread because a few years back I purchased a 1" set of BORA spacer adapters that have the "teeth" on the hub end, and when I finally got around to installing them I found that they didn't fit due to interference with the hub bolts. I didn't quite understand it.

Good to know they worked for you! Very strange that the 1" spacers did not work. I stacked the 3/4" on top of a 1/4" and there was just enough room.

I talked to Lenny today, he said my 3/4" spacers with "teeth" will not work and should not have been made. He said the wheel will still center itself on the front hub without the ring on a 3/4" spacer so that's what I'm going to try. He's going to send me another pair next week and I'll ship the old ones back.

That’s good news. Glad you called, it’s nice to actually speak to someone who has a vested interest in both the product and your satisfaction

if you remember at the time of install - snap a few pics. I’m interested to see the differences in design

Update:
Lenny took care of the situation. I installed the correct 3/4" spacers the day before I road tripped top Santa Fe. I've got about 3500 miles on them so far and everything is working perfectly. And I really, really like the +31 offset I have now.

For the record I have 35x11.50's which are the same width as my old 285/70 KO2's. The front sidewalls are just 1/2" proud of the fender in AHC normal.

Awesome! That's exactly why I wanted to go down to 3/4" spacers with the Rock Warriors instead of keeping the 1.25" spacers. That looks great imo. The dome caps look good too.

Thank you for the update and pics!

Lotta great yotas in your driveway

Thanks! The stance is a lot more aggressive than it was but still subtle. The dome caps were a necessity with the 1/4" slip on spacer, I'm actually hoping the 3/4" spacer will give me enough room to flatten the dust caps and go back to the RW flat caps.

I'm fairly certain I remember reading that they will fit without flattening the dust caps, but I could be wrong. Keep us updated.

Can confirm the OEM RW caps fit with the dust caps hammered flat on 3/4" wheel spacers.

The easy way is 1" spacers. Zero fuss and you get what's left of the hub centering ring if that's important to you.
