    Did some more fitment testing with my 35's and came to the conclusion that I'd need 2.25" of backspacing to completely eliminate rubbing on the frame at full lock and (almost) full stuff. Which would mean running 1.25 spacers with my 3.5" backspaced wheels (when they come in anyway......:rolleyes:) I think I'd rather have less backspacing (because that's a whole frickin lot!) and rub the frame just a little bit, but I think 3.5" backspacing isn't quite enough.

    Soo, does anyone know of a good company that makes hub-centric wheelspacers (with studs!) 1" or less? :D So far, the smallest ones I've found are 1" but I don't even know if they're hub-centric.... http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/index.php/toyota-aluminum-wheel-spacers.html

    Those would be Lug Centric. Spidertrax makes 1.25" that's Hub Centric. They are the best quality.

    That's what I thought... :( Unfortunately, I don't think spidertrax makes any spacers 1" or smaller.... All-pro also sells hub-centric spacers, but not less than 1.25".....

    I don't recommend this, but some people have used a 1/4" wheel spacer (not adapter) and use extended thread lugs to get the bite they need to tighten everything down.
