When Frank Sinatra got his Miura S in 1970, he said: “If you wanna be someone, buy Ferrari - If you are someone, you own a Lamborghini”.

i believed was true, a guy who was there to told me that...

aniway it was only as example how bad could wide spacers be, not inteded to be anything else, raymond
i have seen pics of some cars had problems with wide spacers, the problem is pretty common known
wide spacers could be dangerous, that's all

Yeahhh...its very dangerous..
If you have the wrong Part or the wrong Person who does it!!
I need 30 min to Germany....
NO SPEEDLIMIT.......and I push it to the Limit....without any Problems!!!
I know People who lose there original Rims, the original Bolts break!!
(there 're very bad Quality!)

wider spacers means longer bolts(i hope it is the right word ) and longer bolts are more stressed bolts
so you need better materials or bigger bolts,
of course mr. lambo knows a lot more than me about cars tecnical and it is not a problem for mr. lambo( or i should say mr. sauber ...) finding right bolts or parts for his lambo,
i only want to say to less experienced people be carefull with big spacers or you could have some troubles

If you use primitive spacers with longer bolts and you screw them to hard (too much torque) then the bolts will break sooner or later.
If you screw them onto the hub with the correct torque nothing should happen.
Whenever possible use spacers which are screwed onto the hub and the wheel is screwed onto the spacer. Of course this works only with spacer of 2cm thickness or more.

If I remember correctly that Diablo had only 1cm spacers with longer bolts or they even used the original bolts.
I don't know and I was beside the car, that's why I say don't talk about rumours, this nonsense goes from forum to forum and 3 forums later they say there were 5cm spacers with longer bolts installed
