What is the purpose of fitting these spacers?

Is there a good reason that over-rides all the trouble that is likely to result?

I think he wants it to look wider and more aggressive. It has some big mud tyres on it so new wheels would be a big expense and to be honest i will probably end up paying for them.

Don, they can put a **** load o pressure on the hub, suspension etc. There's a really good guide free with this month's LRO magazine. Definitely put me off spacers!
