Default Wheel adapters ?????

Good day,

FWIW, I run Spider Trax 1.25" spacers on our Jeep Liberty and have so
for the last 2 years without any problems whatsoever. I check the
torque on the additional 20 wheel/spacer nuts everytime I rotate the
tires.
BTW, our Rig has 236,700 kilometers/147,078.6 miles on the clock and
it still has the original wheel bearings.
And yes, our KJ gets wheeled hard all year round!
As far as there being extra strain or stress on the wheel bearings, it
is not any different than using wheels which are wider or have a
different offset or back spacing.
