hub spacers are a hassle free part. you never have to mess with them once they're installed.

wheel spacers require the use of longer studs $$$ and will put more wear/tear on your wheelbearings in the rear than hub spacers (which put no wear/tear at all on your bearings)

I've seen this statement made a few times and would like some clarification on a question which always goes through my mind. I have 10mm wheel spacers with ET42 wheels. How does this combination differ, as far as stress, from a ET32 wheel by itself?
