Never heard of BONOSS spacers until today.

I have several sets of generic aluminum wheel adapters in use on my Corvairs with no issues. One set has been on the car since the late 80's. I bought the last two sets on Amazon such as these that allow me to run Evo 7 rims on my LM convertible or these BMW/BBS Style 42 on my LM coupe.

I’ve been doing some preliminary shopping for different wheels for my Corvair and in most cases what I find could uses a little more back spacing. Very curious what wheels would need spacers?

Many modern rims from FWD or AWD vehicles use high positive offsets (high backspace) and the use of a spacer/adapter brings them to near zero offset which often gets the back space numbers into workable ranges for our Corvairs.
