1.5" wheele spacers
hey im looking at some wheel spacers cuz i want a little wider stance, i dont have a lift, and im going to either 235/75 15s or 30/9.50 15s, has anyone heard anything about these? they are made by rough country, and are a pretty simple design, i will post a link to them. should they make it fit the 30/9.50 15s easier so they shouldn't rub on the trail? again i dont have a lift yet. thanks for your input http://www.jcwhitney.com/wheel-space...lterid=c3829j4

^x2 The only reason I would ever use spacers would be if I did an Explorer 8.8 swap! I would buy aluminum wheels with less back spacing,( unless you are going with bead locks, ) they hold a bead better than steel. If I had to use wheel spacers I would use SpiderTrax! Rough Country's spacers are not the best quality and with wheels and tires you want the very best.

Spacers
The right spacers NO problem. I run SpyderTrax 1.25 Spacers.
Running stock 15" rims, 31 x 10.5, 3" lift.
No more rub on my lower control arms when turning full lock.
Don't get spacers that just go over the hub bolts. You need spacers that go over your hub bolts and have a second set of bolts to mount your rim on. You can even change the bolt pattern if you want to run an aftermarket rim.
Really people think about the geometry and the construction, make a sensible decision.
Use good spacers and there are NO problems.
