Tom, MS II
I did check on the non-hub centered Eagle option. More folks seem to prefer the hub centered Alcoa's or even the Eagles w/ the hub centering inserts. Most folks I talked to cite high coach weight & shock loads. So far I have not found anyone actually using non-hub centered spacers. With 2" spacers my personal opinion is that only the (more expensive) hub centered version provides true centering without relying on conical lug nuts centering the spacer/wheel. Especially since it is necessary to center twice, 1. spacer to hub & 2. wheel to spacer.
Anyone out there actually using non-hub centered 2" spacers? Feel free to share your experience.
A great week to all!
