has anyone ever used any wheel spacers? I was thinking about some for my truck. It's 2WD and the most off road i go is my gravel driveway, so I'm not putting much pressure on them other than everyday driving. Anyone know where to get some fairly cheep?

 

american racing makes spacers
i have a set of 1/4 inch on my truck w/ar rims
not a problem yet.

 

thanks man, i was hoping for a good review on them. what year is your truck?

 

Usually wheel spacers create more problems than they solve.

 

I had heard that they cause trouble, and some people swear by them. so I don't know.

 

I have never heard of any postive experiences from wheel spacers. Best to stay away from them.

 

I am running them on the rear wheels of my truck...I put a spindle lift on the front that kicked the tires out quite a bit in the front of the truck so I wanted to make the back match. I had some custom spacers machined that are hubcentric, and counter sunk for the lugs...I paid $120 for the pair because it is something that can cause a problem so I wanted to get the nicest ones that I can so I hopefully wont have any issues.

They have been on the truck for a few months now and so far zero issues, and you would never even know they are there except the more aggressive stance.

 

Let's see a pic. Not that I would get them, but I am always interested in seeing something different.

 

i had 1" spacers for about a year and had no problems,of course i didn't do any offroading. i just got new wheels and tires is the only reason why i took them off.

 

if the lugs make at least 7 turns till snug most important[IMG][/IMG]

 

I dont recommend spacers because usually people dont check for torque spec and that can cause issues. I can get them for you if you decide to go that route, please let me know which you need.
