instead of adding spacers (and if you hadn't bought new wheels yet) could you just get a different offset and accomplish similar results without the theorized bearing stress? (please correct me if i am wrong)
Yes, a less offset wheel would effectively do the same thing.

I run 17mm on all fours on AP2V1's and over big bumps and dips I rub, be sure to get hub centric wheel spacers and ones that have built-in/pressed-in studs
Before 17mm spacers

After spacers


Now I need fenders rolled, so I can get low
Good luck-Justin

Hubcentric for sure. I've been running with H&R hubcentric spacers for a while now on Ap2v1's. flushed out the rear. specs are 15mm front/30mm rear. havent had a problem with them yet. i did have to roll my fenders all around and flare out the front a bit since im lowered.
