Will wheel spacers void my warranty?

Just checking, I have 30mm spacers from my old 110, will they cause warranty trouble?

If you have any isus surrindoing suspension, bearings, swivel etc etc which causes you take it to the dealer, take the spacers off before you take it. remember to brush the bare metal as it keeps a circular imprint where the nuts are. also you ll need to re-adjust your steering lock stops since your tyres will be closer/touching to the radius arms on full lock

I have spacers on mine and, as yet, the dealer hasn't made any issue. In fact it was in for warranty work on the brakes recently and they very kindly applied copper slip to the spacers and studs! 2009 110 XS

Probably didnt notice - or didnt tell you they voided your warranty

But then brakes arent spacer related Mike

Might got void by a dealer because my tyres and wheels are non standard. Didn't matter as they said my track rod ends we shot but i said i did not want them to do the job and drove it to an independant who gave it back to me without a bill saying he could not find anything wrong with them
