    spacers might make the tire rub the pinch weld...but it's better to trim/beat back the pinch weld than it is to trim the frame I suppose

    the 255s I have on my Tacoma rub the frame too like that, but really only at full lock when flexing a bit, so I just let it happen. Once in awhile will spray some paint over the rubbed off section

    I'd rather rub on the frame then cut down the wheel studs to run .75" spacers lol

    Yeah I bought a couple of those .25" spacers awhile back to try and space them away from the frame, but they took too much off the studs where the lugs were only grabbing like 4 threads. Felt a little risky lol

    And yea it’s only at full lock turning left. It’d be easier to get some other wheels with better off set probably.

    she doesn't mean literally cutting the studs, she means those types of spacers will make it so your studs are .75" shorter than they are now and you might only have a few threads left to thread the lugs onto. Not safe

    If you want to do spacers get the 1.25" ones or whatever the smallest kind is that have studs on them.

    or you can run those .75" ones if you replace your studs with longer ones

    Oh ok so that’s only a concern with the 0.75” spacers. I might as well go 1.25” or 1.5” anyway I guess

    So get this, Front Range Offroad via Shop Rags Designs made a bunch of apparel with Marin Crawler's logo and all.

    That's not the worst part, they've got it all on sale and have posted on social media as well as on their site that all proceeds are going to Marlin's wife.

    This is 100% incorrect as Marlin just posted (they're local to me) that they are in no way affiliated with these fucks.

    Hmmm, this feels lawyerable. Or at least a feast and desist letter

    Damn that is fucked. Hope they go after them fully, if they have their logo copyrighted which I'm sure they do they can sue them for far beyond whatever money they profited off the sales.

    at least that's how it works with stealing someone's photos to use for profit, I'm sure it's similar with copyrighted business logos and such

    feast and desist sounds much more exciting than cease and desist
