Hi Garthhh, Thanks for the info. I did not find any 2-3/8" spacers (2-1/2" yes). Do you by chance have a link? You also wrote, “Here’s some 12” tires & rims 23" tall could rub slightly at the extremes of steering lock". Was there meant to be a link? Thanks again for you assistance. Now if I can just get the wondering steering issue resolved I’ll be good to go. ---

Spacers are only 2" I used 1 1/4" x 1/8" aluminum flatbar drilled & cut into squares to make up the 3/8" on one side &1/4" on the other I wasn’t super precise, drives fine, no vibration I don’t have a place to grind a bit off the calipers & used less flatbar spacers > **[Amazon.com: SCITOO 2 inch 4x100 Wheel Spacers adapters 4x100mm to 4x100mm 12x1.5...](https://www.amazon.com/SCITOO-4x100mm-adapters-Compatible-Mitsubishi/dp/B07WSV9L1T)** > > Buy SCITOO 2 inch 4x100 Wheel Spacers adapters 4x100mm to 4x100mm 12x1.5 Studs Bore 56.1mm Wheel Spacers Adapters Compatible with for Civic del Sol for Lancer for Lancer Wheel Spacers 2Pcs: Wheel Adapters & Spacers - Amazon.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY... ---

You probably need something like these My ezgo has a similar set The pressure set around 10 psi to avoid wearing out the center knobs too quick Same for my GEM on the street > **[Amazon.com: RM Cart - 10" Gunslinger Black/Machined on 20x10-10 Black Trail II...](https://www.amazon.com/RM-Cart-Gunslinger-Machined-20x10-10/dp/B08P6BJSVC)** > > Our goal at RM carts is to provide great products at a reasonable price and providing great customer service.

Thanks, that’s about what I bought. I found 2.5" x 4" x 4" spacers, too, which should work great if the 2-3/8" worked for you [I verified my 2011 GEM E2 as imperial]. Great to know about the 10psi, too, thank you! All that’s left is to sort the steering issue. ---

So I took a video and it seems I might have a bent right front wheel or at least way out of alignment. Is there a way to post videos to see the GEM driving up a hill? ---

IIRC you have to upload the video to somehing like youtube or other video host then you put the link in your post [Previous page](https://community.electricforum.com/t/e2-steering-and-acceleration/28068.md?page=1)
