Iāve used wheel spacers on all of my daily drivers for the past 25+ years. Iāve never had an issue caused or as a result of the use of wheel spacers.
You can buy replacement moldings on eBay/Amazon for about $45. They are super easy to change out and they are so cheap that if they last two or three years you get your moneys worth.. Hopefully theyāll last longer than that.
