Where are you at now? Are you going larger tires? Do not want to trim? Reason to use spacers or just because you can? I know they are a decent amount of money, but if I go any taller on my like, I am going to use some of the JKS ACOS.

Default spacers or not ??

Iv'e got some 33'' bfg's...they fit pretty good, no rubbing or anything. i trimmed the front fenders a bit just to give it a better look. The reason im thinking of putting some 2'' spring spacers is because i recently through in some shackles and now it sits a bit higher on the rear. I prefer for it to be lots higher in the front...what do you think ???? thanxx in advance. Oh by the way im in Southern California.

if you have the extra bucks or so on top of the cost of the spacers, get taller coils at the appropriate spring rate... dont forget though that your shocks may get extended too far - that always sucks...

I did spacers on my jeep cause I didn't have the money for the coils... I would have preferred the coils, but it still rides great, performs well, etc

Spacers limit your total amount of travel. Get coils
