Looking at Bora wheel spacers, would like some that are hub centric and wheel centric. Will be running them on stock 20x9 wheels. Anybody know the center bore on my wheels? I can find the measurements for the hub side, but haven’t found specs for the wheel side center bore?

The o.d. of the hub is 78.1 so the i.d. of the wheel is 78.1.  Why do you need spacers?  Check this thread. Member dram has a set.

BDS kit increased track width up front, just want to set the back out a bit to match. Thanks for the intel

Meant o.d. of hub is 78.1 not o.d. of wheel bore.

See any issues with what I’m thinking if I’m just running it rear? Looking at Bora’s product offering I’d need to switch to an adapter for anything over 30mm (not sure that’s needed, just looking around). Still learning about these spacers and adapters etc.

If I needed to go an inch, what’s a reasonable option? They recommend a two piece adapter. Part one is hub centric, part two is wheel centric, both machines to fit each other. Never ran anything like that, but I see the physics.

May just leave it as is... :)

I believe ready lift makes a set just for this purpose on the rear of trucks with lifts. Slip on style spacers, if I remember right they were 1/2" thickness and I think I remember seeing something about replacing wheel studs with longer ones. I didn't dig too hard on that since I wasn't needing to go out that far from the hub. But I think gorilla makes some stock style lugs that have extended threads that you could use with a slip on spacer depending on how thick of a spacer you use.

 

On the Bora spacers, they can make just about anything you need if you call them. Typically the spacer will have the same size lip as the factory hub to keep the stock wheel setup hub centric and not lug centric. If you're going an inch out with spacers, you will need to replace the stock wheel studs with longer ones if they make them that long or using spacers with stud/lugs of their own and having to cut down the stock ones so the wheel sits flush against the spacer in the same manner as stock setup.

 

Depending on stock wheels, you can use 1.5" if they have pockets on the back side of the wheel, or if not 1.75" spacers if you don't want to cut the stock wheel studs down at all.

 

Hopefully this makes sense and helps you out, it's still early and my brain is still trying to get going lol

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
