5 Stud wheel spacers used for Toyota Land Cruisers
The latest 70 series Land Cruisers have a problem where the rear axle is 90mm narrower than the front axle. Thus the rear and front wheels does not run in the same track. Our 5 stud wheel spacers are 45mm thick and will rectify this problem.
Please Note: Older model land cruisers, like the 40, 60 or 80 series, take a 6 stud spacer (the same spacer as the Hilux). If you are unsure what spacer your vehicle takes, check the wheels or give us a call.
Have a look at http://www.wheel-size.com/size/ to see what size spacer your vehicle use.
NOTE: Price is per spacer!
The wheels spacer bolts onto the vehicle on the existing studs with the nuts supplied. Your wheel then bolts onto the wheel spacer using the studs on the wheel spacer and your original nuts.
- Wheel Spacer material ALUMINUM
- Stud – 14mm x 1.5 pitch – high tensile 10.9 grade
- Nuts – 40CrMo high tensile steel
- 45mm thick
- 150mm PCD
- centre bore 110.3 mm
NOTE: If you use it on steel rims the studs are too long for the chrome nuts and you have to trim the studs a little bit. It is however no problem with mags.
Notes: Please read full fitment instructions here:

Make sure the surface on the vehicle hub is clean and free from any debris before fitment.
The same applies to the back of the wheel spacer which should be clean.
Tighten all nuts by hand first, then torque in cross over sequence to 30 Nm. Then Torque to 100Nm.
When you have them fitted at a tyre fitment centre, keep an eye on the procedures because they normally tighten it with impact wrench. DO NOT allow them to use an impact wrench and make sure they tighten them in cross over sequence.
Check the wheel spacer nuts after the first 500 km to make sure they are tight. Thereafter check every 5000km.
* The use of thread locker will void the warranty of these wheel spacers
Reason: How do you frequently check the torque if you used thread locker?
