I just want to add, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE CHEAP PEPBOYS SPACERS THEY SELL THAT SPACE IT OUT 1/4 INCH. Ive seen some horrible things with those types of spacers. Now if you use spacers such as those from spidertrax then go for it IMO. Procedure for installing is real easy and as mentioned, if you can change a tire you can install spacers.
