Default Double wheel spacer?

Could you put on a wheel spacer, then add another on top to get a 3"spacer? Not planning on doing this but just thinking of new ideas.

Mine said don't do that otherwise, "death or serious injury would occur"...

You 'could' do a lot of things. Doesn't mean they are a good idea. I hope you stay there in Missouri when you get drunk and do stupid stuff like this...

Personally, I wouldn't put two spacers together. It just seems extremely dangerous.

Putting two wheel spacers together would be equivalent to a death from final destination 3.

Sure you could do it, but chances are you will run into problems. You will kill your hubs much faster, 3 inches dont seem like a lot, but you take 3 inches and put the weight of a wheel and tire on it, and you will see how much it is.

Plus that just sounds dangerous.
