Ferrari Wheel Spacers.
The complete guide.
Everything you need to know before fitting Ferrari wheel spacers — model fitment, 15mm vs 20mm, safety, bolt requirements, installation advice and UK-made hubcentric spacer design.
Ferrari Wheel Spacers
Ferrari owners fit wheel spacers to improve stance, fill the arches, correct conservative factory offset and give the car a wider, more purposeful presence without changing the original wheels.
The key is correct specification. Most modern Ferrari road cars in this range use a 5×114.3 PCD, 67.1mm centre bore and M14×1.5 ball-seat wheel bolts. A properly machined hubcentric spacer keeps the wheel centred on the hub, which is essential for vibration-free fitment on high-performance cars.
This guide covers the main Ferrari models including 458, 488, F8, SF90, 296, 812, California, Portofino, F12, Roma, GTC4Lusso and FF.
Ferrari Wheel Spacer Fitment Explained
A Ferrari wheel spacer must match the hub and wheel exactly. The 67.1mm centre bore is not just a clearance hole — it is the locating feature that centres the wheel and prevents vibration.
Brightstone Engineering Ferrari spacers are CNC machined to suit the 5×114.3 / 67.1mm Ferrari fitment. They are supplied without bolts because the correct extended bolt length depends on your exact model, wheel design and spacer thickness.
Why Ferrari Owners Fit Wheel Spacers
Ferraris often leave the factory with a refined, conservative wheel position. Spacers move the wheel outward by a controlled amount, helping the tyre sit closer to the arch line for a more complete OEM+ stance.
The visual effect is usually the main reason, but there are practical benefits too. Wheel spacers can increase track width, provide additional brake clearance and correct offset when using different wheels.
On cars such as the 458, 488 and F8, 15mm spacers are often enough to create a noticeable improvement. Wider models such as the 812, SF90 and 296 can visually support a more aggressive 20mm setup depending on wheel and tyre combination.
15mm vs 20mm Ferrari Wheel Spacers
Brightstone Engineering Ferrari spacers are available in 15mm and 20mm. Both sizes can work well, but they create different visual results.
CNC machined from 6082-T6 billet aluminium with a precise 67.1mm hubcentric bore. Ferrari wheel bolts are not supplied as standard, but we can help source the correct extended bolts for your exact application.
The safest starting point for most Ferrari owners. Gives a meaningful stance improvement while keeping the car looking factory-correct.
Popular for: 458, 488, F8, California, Portofino, Roma
A stronger visual change for owners wanting the wheels closer to the arch line. Best used where clearance has been checked carefully.
Popular for: 812, SF90, 296, F12, wider-arched setups
Spacer choice depends on wheel width, tyre size, offset, ride height and alignment. If your Ferrari has aftermarket wheels, lowering springs, coilovers or track geometry, contact us before ordering.

Common Ferrari Wheel Spacer Mistakes
Most Ferrari spacer issues are avoidable. Use a vehicle-specific hubcentric spacer, confirm the correct bolt specification, check clearance and follow the correct installation process.
UK-machined Ferrari spacers, not generic imports.
Every Brightstone Ferrari wheel spacer starts as a solid billet of 6082-T6 aluminium before being CNC machined to the correct 5×114.3 / 67.1mm specification.
The centre bore and hubcentric lip are the critical features. These are machined precisely so the spacer locates correctly on the Ferrari hub and provides a proper register for the wheel.
This is what separates a proper hubcentric Ferrari spacer from a generic universal spacer. The fitment must be precise, especially on cars with high speeds, carbon-ceramic brakes and expensive wheels.
Ferrari Wheel Bolt Requirements
Brightstone Engineering Ferrari wheel spacers are supplied without wheel bolts. Correct extended bolts are still required, but the exact specification depends on your Ferrari model, wheel design and spacer thickness.
Most models covered by this guide use M14×1.5 ball-seat wheel bolts. The extended bolt length is calculated by adding the spacer thickness to the original bolt shank length, while also maintaining the correct seat type and thread engagement.
If you are unsure which bolts you need, get in touch before ordering. We can help you identify and source the correct extended hardware for your application.
Do not reuse standard wheel bolts with spacers. You need extended bolts of the correct length, thread and seat type for your exact Ferrari.
Are Ferrari Wheel Spacers Safe?
Yes, provided they are hubcentric, correctly machined, installed with the correct extended bolts and torqued properly. The hubcentric design keeps the wheel centred on the hub rather than relying on the bolts to centre the wheel.
On a Ferrari, this matters. The loads are higher, the wheels are expensive, and the braking systems are extremely capable. A loose-fitting spacer, universal spacer or incorrect bolt setup is not worth the risk.
A properly specified Ferrari spacer maintains the correct load path through the hub face and wheel mounting surface. Installation quality, bolt specification and torque procedure are just as important as the spacer itself.
