    Sure 1.25 spacers here...just make sure you use hubcentric spacers and the correct lug nuts to avoid issues. See photos for clarity...

    Rides just like stock...steering wheel is smooth as silk at highway speed no vibration. My only complaint is the side of the truck gets dirty faster with the wheels sticking out of the wheel well. I noticed slightly less understeer when entering a corner at high speed due too the wider stance. Just make sure the spacer sits flush to the hub, torque spacer to 95 foot pounds and use red lock tight when attaching spacer to factory wheel studs...lock tight is not required when you attach wheel to spacer.

    Agree with Ronzio. Now on turns or deep water on the sides of the road it gets thrown up onto the windshield. Other than that it makes a difference in the look of the truck, by not making it look like it's so tall. Looks a bit squatty without being too brodozer.

    I've also been considering doing this to my stock DBSB Offroad Tacoma.
    Do the 1.25" rub the mud flaps or anything?
