Default Wheel spacers?

So, I want wheel spacers on my jeep. Is there a brand that is better then the others? Or is there a set that is cheap but good quality? Is it even worth putting them on it? Thanks in advance.

I use spidertrax on my jeep with 33x12.50 and they do fine. No vibes or coming loose. Great construction as well. But pricy. Only running them because a buddy used them as a temporary solution before buying wheels

Remember, new spidertrax are about 20 bucks less than a cheap set of 4 black wheels with 3.75 backspace. But here is stock 15x7 wheels with 1.25" spidertrax behind em wrapped with 33x12.50

As stated above its almost cheaper to get some steelies. I got mine for $42 bucks a piece. If I had to buy wheel spacers I would only buy Spidertrax. A buddy of mine got some cheap RC ones and recently posted a picture on Facebook of his wheel Jeep getting towed because the wheel fell off, studs sheered off. Just make sure you don't cheap out on something that's main function is to hold your wheel on.

Hub-centric Spidertrax. Often can find a used set fairly cheap. I paid $100 (I think) for a set. Just need patience and time to search around (not just Jeep forums).
