Wheel Spacers | Wheel Adapters | Lug Adapters
Just remember lock tite and you must torque them. You will be ok if you do those two things.

That place you showed me only has 6x139.7 to 8x6.5... HD wheels are 8x180
Starting to think they don't make 6x139.7 to 8x180 =(

Lock tite on the adapters itself and lug nuts? I've had 2" spacers before and never put lock tite on them, just torqued them at 150lbs then a week later torqued them again which I really didn't have too. Rode on it for two straight years without any problems. I hope the adapters have the same story..

Starting to think they don't make 6x139.7 to 8x180 =(I lock tight the adapters. I had adapters on a Police caprice with vette wheels. I almost had a wheel come off with just torque. I locked them up with lock tite and torued em. No problems after that. They just make me nervous. They cant be that bad considering the dually guys run adapters to put semi wheels on and tow a lot of weight.
