1.25” spidertrax. You’ll probably start rubbing. Looks nice as it is!!!

 

I have Spidertrax 1.25. This is with the stock 265/70-16 tires.

 

Do your tires Rub at all?

 

Not at all. I have the TRD lift now, but had the spacers on a couple weeks before. I didn't have any rubbing

 

Are your wheels painted black and where did you get the TRD center caps?

 

Wheels have a Black Vinyl Decal Overlay Wrap

OP , pls update once you have the spacers installed. Tnx

 

I mentioned the idea of spacers to a friend of mine and he went off about how it's a terrible idea and can cause real problems. Curious what others think of this...

 

Before my Tacoma, I had wheel spacers on my Wrangler for 3 years with no issues. My Father in law is on year 5 with the same spacers on his Wrangler. Get a name brand set (don't cheap out), follow the directions, and you will be fine.

 

Good to know. I like the look spacers create and was looking into them. He knows far more than me about trucks and had me worried. But I guess some people just have their views.

 

I ordered the 1.25" Spidertrax wheel spacers, Will update with before and after photos.

 

They will come with red loctite. I used blue just so I can get them off down the road. Using red will make them just about permanent.

 

thanks that will come in handy a lot, I need to decide if I want to do that too.

 

first without spacer and second with spacer.

 

Just get wheels with the correct offset. Aftermarket wheels tend to be wider depending on what size you get, so even the tires will look wider. These wheels are 8 inches wide. The stock ones were 7 wide.

 

Thank you, how was it. Any rubbing ? I have same tire ( duratrac 265/75/26] and on stock height no lift.

 

true, your truck will self destruct after the spacers have been put on.
