PHILTOP 4x156 Wheel Spacer 2in Lug Centric ATV Spacers - Fit Yamaha

In this review the PHILTOP 4x156 Wheel Spacer set is evaluated for ATV owners who need extra clearance or a wider track. The bottom line is straightforward: these 2in, lug centric spacers are made for riders who want a durable, corrosion-resistant way to move wheels outward for larger tires, caliper clearance, or a more aggressive stance. The review focuses on fit, build quality, and practical installation notes relevant to Yamaha and Polaris models listed by the manufacturer.

Key Features

• Bolt Pattern 4x156: A precise bolt pattern that ensures correct alignment with compatible Yamaha and Polaris hubs for a secure fit.
• 2in Thickness: Two inches of spacer width that provide meaningful wheel offset for tire clearance and improved cornering stability.
• 6061-T6 Aircraft Aluminum: Forged, anodized construction gives the spacers a lightweight but durable shell that resists environmental corrosion.
• Heat-treated 10.9 Studs: Pre-installed carbon steel studs rated for high strength and improved corrosion resistance compared with basic hardware.
• M12x1.5 Thread Pitch: Standard thread pitch compatible with the listed vehicle applications, simplifying hardware compatibility checks.
• Recommended Torque 70-80 ft/lbs: Clear torque guidance helps assure safe installation when followed with the required re-torque after initial miles.

Who It's For

This spacer set is best for owners of compatible ATVs and utility models such as Yamaha YFZ450, YFM660R Raptor, YFZ350 Banshee, and listed Polaris Ranger and Sportsman models who need extra clearance for larger tires or brake calipers. Riders wanting to widen track width for improved cornering stability or a more aggressive stance will find the 2in offset effective.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of vehicles not listed in the compatibility guide or anyone uncomfortable trimming wheel studs if their vehicle bolts are too long. Also, users seeking a bolt-on kit with different bolt patterns or thinner spacers should choose a spacer sized to their specific hub and wheel specifications.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Fit: Customers report the adapters fit great on compatible models, confirming the lug centric design functions as intended.
• Quality: The anodized 6061-T6 aluminum and 10.9 grade studs deliver a solid, corrosion-resistant assembly.

Cons

• Installation note: If vehicle bolts exceed spacer thickness, you must cut the bolts to proper length, which adds time and requires tools.
• Compatibility check: Buyers must confirm year, make, and model match the fitment list before ordering to avoid fit issues.
