It can be done longer, up to 10 cm 4?

, but it rarely happens that we are asked for it, and only for people over 2 meters tall, or for drivers with disabilities. Normally we do not accept requests for 1 or 2 cm long spacers more because the cost to design them and above all to produce them becomes very high in relation to the benefit that is obtained. If your car already has depth adjustment, the steering wheel Spacer can be mounted and the existing regulation keep working.

Even in the case of an electric column. Do the turn signal levers stay too far afterwards? The turn signal and windshield wiper levers they are not approached with the steering wheel, because they are originally mounted on the steering column of the car.

This is to make sure that in the future you can remove the steering wheel Spacer leaving the car as it was before. Whenever possible, we manufacture the harnesses using the original connectors inside the steering wheel, fitted with a snap lock.

Sometimes it is not possible to find these connectors on the market, and we have to resort to generic connectors, which still work well. There is no one-size-fits-all answer, because the policies of the parent companies regarding the guarantee they are not the same for everyone. There are those who are very rigid, but there are also those who are flexible and if the part fitted has no relation to the fault that may occur on the machine, the guarantee remains valid. While other dealerships may decide otherwise.

For countries outside Italy, the laws are different for each country. We have supported individual customers who have sought TÜV approval for their specific vehicle and we are working towards TÜV approval for all of our products, but this will take time.

Meanwhile, we are updating the site by publishing technical drawings that have been requested by individual customers to obtain TÜV approval on their vehicle, so that you can download them and show them to your TÜV office before purchasing to find out if they are useful. Where are your products manufactured? All our products, starting from the wheel spacers, are manufactured in Italy and designed by us near Monza. We have the software and the technical preparation to carry out the design, the CNC machines and the CAD-CAM software for the production and we also rely on external companies, still in the Monza area, for some stages of the manufacturing.

Our suppliers are reliable and carefully selected companies that we have known, in some cases, for more than 30 years, through past work experiences.

Does Spacershop only make wheel spacers? The real question they often ask us is: but can you make a living off this? Because the novelty and uniqueness of the product is such that it often raises doubts that we are used to by now, and we must confess that we even amuse ourselves a bit. This company mostly only makes wheel spacers, it was born from this idea, had by chance and which originally was not thought to become a job. It was the enthusiasm and requests of customers from all over the world (we sell 95% abroad) that prompted us to create this company, and we have continued to grow even during the Covid period.

The passion for cars, for driving, for racing, and for the elaboration and development of components, and the people we met along the way have always given new stimuli to expand the range of products we offer, which also extends to products that are not ours but which convinced us so much that we became resellers, such as the OS-Giken limited slip differentials and the lightened Liteblox batteries. Whenever possible, we create new products or experiment with new solutions, some of which then make it to the market, such as paddle shifters. We don't set ourselves creative limits, and we make certain projects just for the pleasure of doing them. The only limits are time and resources, which luckily increase as the company grows.

Over the years, we have seen that many customers change their car and ask us for a steering wheel Spacer for their new car too, and this has always given us confidence in the future. If you've read this far, you're a part of us by now and we thank you for the attention and support you may want to give us.
