Wheel Spacer Customization: Size, Bolt Pattern & PCD

You are a Fusion 360 beginner: You want to learn by doing, not by memorizing menus.

You have a 3D printer: You are ready to move beyond downloading files and start designing your own.

You work with real-world parts: You want to learn how to make your designs actually fit 3D scans or existing hardware.

You aren't an engineer: You just want to make cool stuff in your garage that works perfectly.

Fusion 360 Basics: Navigate the interface and set up your workspace for automotive design using metric measurements.

Sketching Simple Shapes: Create the foundation of your spacer using basic circles and precise dimensions.

Modeling the PCD: Learn how to accurately measure and draw the Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) to match your vehicle's hub.

The Circular Pattern Tool: Master the "repeat" function to instantly space your bolt holes perfectly around the hub.

Extruding for Fitment: Turn your 2D drawings into 3D models and learn how to adjust thickness to test different offsets.

3D Printing Your Mockup: Best practices for exporting your file and printing a physical prototype.

The Fitment Test: How to use your 3D print to verify clearance and wheel poke before you spend money on metal spacers
