Wheel spacers
Im trying to clear something up with a buddy of mine, if I use wheel spacers on factory wheels on a 2 inch lifted XJ will he be in danger of them coming out while hes driving? Should he do it or no

then the same logic should apply to any stock wheel on any car. it's all held on by lug nuts.
is he afraid that the wheels are going to come off of his car too? lol

Spaced Out
Buy quality, torque em, check em!
Spidertrax spacers came complete, 1.25 inch, no control arm rub with 31's and 3 in lift. I run 100 ft lb torque. Napa has fresh nuts if you need em.
I use antiseize.
100000 miles, no problems, and I check em monthly, no problems.

yes he will be fine.
1st torque em all to 90 ft lb, with a criss cross pattern, then repeat torque and pattern at 100 ft lb (+10 / -0). then check em for 100 ft lb again tomorrow.
