Default Wheel spacers

Idk what the backspacing is on my stock wheels but I was thinking about putting wheel spacers on to give my truck a better stance. I was looking at the TeraFlex 1.25s. I'm planning to put wheels on later with 3.75 backspacing but for now I want my 30x9.5s to look better on my 3" bds lift. What should I do?

Save for wheels, you can get steelies rims for about the same as spacers. I found my wagon wheels on craigs for $50 bucks. I think stock is 5.25 or 5.5 someone clarify that please

I got 15" soft 8's on my 04. If you go with crager or unique (same wheel) in 15 or 16 you will get what you are looking for. I believe stock is 5.25 bs on 99-04. I can measure tomorrow if it is needed.

Good bolt on spacers will run you at least $125, which is probably the cost of at least one if not two of the wheels you want to run. If I knew I wanted to change wheels then I'd save my pocket change and just skip the spacers.

I got a set of 1.25 hub centric spacers for $130 on ebay. Just like spidertrax for half the price.

Used them on my moabs, really didt want to buy some wheels that EVERYONE has (soft 8/d windows)
