7005's and Wheel Spacers (Pics)

Put the 7005's back on and also added 2" wheel spacers.

The spacers ride very well, no vibrations at all and the tires still do not rub.

Thanks man.

Sorry i dont have any close up's.

here is the link. The seller had 1" and 2" , but be advised anything smaller than 2" you might need to trim the oem studs. you should be ok with 1.5", but i would double check with someone who has em. Also make sure you get hub centric spacers.
These are the exact ones i bought, they seem to be good quality.

Heres another link for H & R Spacers, they look nice but i dont like the price, thats why i went with the ebay ones lol

so this is the price for 2 of them so youd have to buy 2 sets of 2?

You won't have any issue with 1.5" but anything smaller and you will have to modify or replace the studs.

Hey IDNC76, I ended up keeping mine and putting them on with my new rims and tires. I was surprised that with only a 2.5" level / 35" KM2s on 17x8.5 rims that I could still use them and have absolutely no rubbing at any angle. They actually fit better than my previous set up. Just need to get some new pics posted.

Looks good.

I'd lift the back though to get rid of the bulldog look.

I was looking through the photo albums and saw the picture and knew it before I saw this thread. Looks real good man! Just make sure everything is nice and torqued, I usually check mine once a week just to make sure.

most of the spacers you will find will be sold in a pair. So yeah , you need to buy 2 sets.

Good to hear theres no rubbing, get some pics up. btw how often do you check the torque on your spacers and the wheels ?

Thanks man.

The pics exaggerate the bulldog look. my street is on a bit on a slant. It sits abit nose high but not like those pics show.

heres a shot on flat ground

thanks IOR. What do you check when you torque them once a week, the wheels or the spacers or both, also has any lugs been loose yet?

No, none have broken off. On the rockstars you know how you have that opening by the star, well I just put my fingers in there and check all the lugs to make sure they are tight and none of them are loose.

I actually put some LocTite on it this time just to make sure but before I'd check them every six months when I rotate the tires. My truck doesn't get that many miles on it so it works out twice a year. Never had an issue with them coming loose or any vibrations.

Still like your truck better with the chrome rims but that's just me. Looks better with the spacers.
