Bora 1.25″ Wheel Spacers for Toyota Tacoma | USA-Made Forged Aluminum
Our 1.25″ wheel spacers are precision-engineered specifically for Toyota Tacoma trucks, delivering an aggressive stance while maintaining factory ride quality. Each spacer is CNC-machined from forged 6061-T6 aluminum in the USA, meeting the exact tolerances your Tacoma demands for wheel-to-hub fitment.
We include a complete hardened steel stud kit with every set, so you have everything needed for installation. These spacers push your wheels outward to clear larger aftermarket tires, improve track width for enhanced stability, and create the bold appearance Tacoma owners demand. Whether you’re running 33″ all-terrains or simply want better clearance for lift kits, our 1.25″ spacers provide the perfect balance of function and form.
- Forged 6061-T6 billet aluminum construction for maximum strength-to-weight ratio
- 1.25″ (31.75mm) width per spacer – ideal for moderate tire clearance and stance
- Complete hardened steel stud kit included with grade 10.9 fasteners
- Hub-centric design maintains factory wheel bearing alignment and reduces vibration
- Compatible with all Toyota Tacoma models (2005-2024) – verify your bolt pattern 6×5.5″
Why Forged Aluminum Matters for Your Tacoma
We manufacture every Bora wheel spacer from forged 6061-T6 aluminum because this aerospace-grade material delivers superior strength compared to cast alternatives. The forging process realigns the aluminum’s grain structure, creating a denser, more resilient foundation that handles the stress of off-road impacts and high-torque driving.
Cast spacers may cost less initially, but they’re prone to porosity and structural weaknesses that can lead to catastrophic failure. Our forged construction has been independently tested to over 10 times the load your Tacoma will experience during extreme off-road use. The T6 heat treatment further hardens the aluminum, while our Type II anodizing creates a protective oxide layer that stands up to mud, salt, and trail debris season after season.
Complete Stud Kit & Hub-Centric Design
What’s Included in Every Set
Your Bora Tacoma spacer kit arrives with 24 hardened steel studs (six per wheel), 24 grade 10.9 lug nuts, and detailed torque specifications. We pre-install studs at the factory using red Loctite and proper torque settings, so they’re ready for immediate installation on your truck.
Hub-Centric Precision
Our spacers feature a hub-centric bore machined to match your Tacoma’s factory hub diameter within 0.001″ tolerance. This precision fit centers the wheel on the hub rather than relying solely on lug nuts, eliminating vibration at highway speeds and reducing stress on wheel studs. The result is a factory-smooth ride quality even with the increased track width. For technical installation guidance, see our full Tacoma wheel spacer installation instructions.
Fitment & Tire Clearance for Tacoma Builds
The 1.25″ width provides approximately 2.5″ of additional clearance across your Tacoma’s track width—ideal for clearing 33″ tires on stock suspension or accommodating aggressive wheel offsets without rubbing. This measurement works perfectly with common Tacoma lift heights between 2.5″ and 3″, though we always recommend test-fitting before finalizing your wheel and tire selection.
Bolt Pattern Compatibility
All Tacoma models from 2005 through 2024 use a 6×5.5″ (6×139.7mm) bolt pattern, which our spacers are specifically designed to match. Verify your factory studs are in good condition before installation, and confirm your aftermarket wheels have adequate depth to accommodate the additional stud length. If you’re running TRD Pro wheels or other OEM options, our spacers maintain full compatibility while preserving your factory wheel finish.

What people are saying
Common Questions About Bora Tacoma Wheel Spacers
Yes, our 1.25″ spacers provide approximately 2.5″ of additional track width, which is typically sufficient to clear 33″ tires on Tacomas with 2.5″ to 3″ lift kits. However, final clearance depends on your specific wheel offset, backspacing, and tire width.
We recommend test-fitting your wheel and tire combination before final installation to verify clearance at full steering lock and full compression. If you’re running stock suspension, you may need additional trimming or a smaller tire size to avoid contact with the fender liner during articulation.
Yes, re-torquing is a critical step for all wheel spacer installations. Torque all fasteners to specification during initial installation, then re-check and re-torque after the first 50-100 miles of driving.
This allows the spacer to fully seat against the hub and the wheel to properly mate with the spacer surface. After the initial re-torque, we recommend quarterly inspections or checks after any significant off-road use. Keep a torque wrench in your vehicle during the break-in period for roadside verification if needed.
Absolutely. Our spacers are engineered to exceed SAE J2530 industry standards with a tested load capacity of 3,000 lbs per spacer—significantly higher than your Tacoma’s axle loads during normal operation or towing within GVWR limits.
The forged 6061-T6 aluminum construction provides superior fatigue resistance compared to cast alternatives, and our hub-centric design maintains proper load distribution across wheel bearings. Thousands of Tacoma owners use our spacers daily for commuting, towing, and off-road adventures without issues. Proper installation and periodic inspection are the keys to long-term safety and performance.
Hub-centric spacers like ours feature a machined bore that precisely matches your Tacoma’s hub diameter, allowing the hub to center and support the wheel. This design reduces vibration and distributes loads evenly across wheel bearings, just like your factory wheel mounting.
Lug-centric spacers rely solely on wheel studs for centering, which can cause vibration and uneven load distribution. While lug-centric designs may cost less, they compromise ride quality and can accelerate wheel bearing wear. Our hub-centric design maintains factory-level performance and comfort.
We do not recommend stacking wheel spacers due to safety concerns. Stacking creates additional stress points and reduces the thread engagement on your wheel studs, increasing the risk of fastener failure.
If you need more than 1.25″ of spacing, we offer wider single-piece options including our 1.5″ Tacoma spacers. Single-piece spacers maintain proper structural integrity and provide adequate stud length for safe wheel mounting. Always use the appropriately sized spacer for your application rather than combining multiple thinner units.
Wheel spacers are considered aftermarket accessories and are not typically covered under Toyota’s factory warranty. However, installing quality spacers like ours should not void your entire vehicle warranty—only components directly affected by the modification could be excluded from coverage.
As for handling, properly installed hub-centric spacers maintain your Tacoma’s factory handling characteristics while providing slightly improved stability due to increased track width. You may notice marginally increased steering effort at low speeds, but most drivers find the improved stance and stability worth this minor trade-off. Always follow torque specifications and re-torque procedures to ensure safe, predictable performance.
Yes, our wheel spacers are fully compatible with Toyota’s factory TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensors. The spacer design provides clearance for the sensor hardware, and the hub-centric mounting maintains the proper air seal between wheel and hub.
Your TPMS sensors remain in the wheels and function exactly as they did before spacer installation. No programming or sensor replacement is required. If you’re installing new wheels along with spacers, simply transfer your factory TPMS sensors to the new wheels using standard TPMS service procedures.
