Sold individually.
Note: The standard long sleeved 608 bearing spacer won't fit the older Bauer and Nike Bauer branded skates. 2008 and earlier models have a unique larger diameter axle. The Sonic Extender Axle Kit will provide 8 axles and 8 bearing spacers that can be used on these Bauer skates. Since the heads on the Sonic axles are both round, one head won't fit in the recessed oblong hole on the Bauer frame, but it still works.
Previous Feedback
Comments: BIIG difference over stock spacers! Wheels go in and out of the track easier and spin better/longer right off the bat. Also, even though they're all made out of the same kind of aluminum (supposedly), these seem just a hair lighter. Definitely a must-have to get the most out of your bearings.

Comments: Do the Job well, but order extras, they aren't indestructible, and don't last forever. After about a dozen bearing changes and cleanings, I find the spacers to be showing their age.
