Wheel Spacers

Ryguy33 · May 12th, 2009, 10:10 PM

are they worth the money?

Scott2001GT · May 12th, 2009, 10:10 PM

i hear they are not good for the axles b/c of sagging. thats what I HEARD though

ajm · May 12th, 2009, 10:11 PM

Ive never used them but just like scott said I have *heard* quite a few bad things about them ranging from something simple to breaking when going down the road.

Ryguy33 · May 12th, 2009, 10:13 PM

that would be bad

Scott2001GT · May 12th, 2009, 10:15 PM

i would say so...for a wider look is what i am guessing you want....maybe get 17x10.5 rims with 315s?

C0BRAK1LL3R · May 12th, 2009, 10:16 PM

Look like one of those low rider trucks with the tires sticking out 10 inches haha kidding, But I have heard the same. Unless running a big tire and need clearance I dont see any benefit from it.

Ryguy33 · May 12th, 2009, 10:19 PM

yea either that or maby 18x9's all around

Scott2001GT · May 12th, 2009, 10:20 PM

ya....i guess 18x9 aLL AROUND to rotate?

C0BRAK1LL3R · May 12th, 2009, 10:21 PM

Find a 17x11 with these tires, I wanted them. http://www.mandhtires.com/store.php?...on=show_detail

or run a 18 by 10.5 and run that 345 tire

Scott2001GT · May 12th, 2009, 10:22 PM

Ryguy33 · May 12th, 2009, 10:23 PM

haha thos are ridiculous

Scott2001GT · May 12th, 2009, 10:25 PM

ya they would look good too. umm IMO stay away from the spacing and save your money.

Ryguy33 · May 12th, 2009, 10:26 PM

yea good idea

spokanemustang · May 12th, 2009, 10:47 PM

I have some on my rears. they add a great look from stock. they are only like half inch spacers. very simple. very cheap. think they cost me like 20 bucks but i love the difference

Jazzer The Cat · May 12th, 2009, 10:54 PM

I run 1/2" spacers, but would not have done it without longer/stronger lug-bolts

I would NOT run anything wider myself, as I think this introduces some issues mentioned above.
