Why Choose Lethal Performance Wheel Spacers?
These are not just an accessory, they are a genuine upgrade. Here is what they do:
- Enhanced stability and handling: widening your track width improves stability and cornering, especially at speed and through quick transitions, for a safer, more controlled feel.
- Aggressive stance: pushing the wheels outward gives your Explorer ST a wider, more muscular look and better fitment for wider tires and custom wheels.
- Improved brake clearance: the added space clears upgraded brake systems so your big brakes fit and function without interference.
