wheel spacers

So 97 tacoma 2.7 4x4 stock

Any ideas on wheel spacers

I want a lil wider look and feel but $$ won't allow me to do a axel conversation,

 

I don't personally run any, but Spidertrax has an impeccable record. All Pro also offers a decent set too. The main thing to look for is that the spacers are hub centric. Other than that go for some wider tires and a little more backspacing on the rims.

 

Thanks for the idea man. I'll keep tha in mind

 

also if you have manual hubs make sure you get spacers that fit those.

 

8 inch wide wheels with negative offset should do the trick.

 

I'm running stock rims with stock 31x10.50R15s n I do have manual hubs. Thanks for that tip also

 

I had 4WD in Dallas put on a set of 4Runner rims on my 03 DLX and figured I 'd throw some wheel spacers on because I always liked the look and they said my tires were rubbing. I have a 2&1/2" lift and they said I would need to go up to a 3" lift to clear. Another thing for the wish list...

 

I've run wheel spacers on almost every Toyota I've owned. I have never had an issue. Don't run the cheap ones from the parts store. Get the good ones like spidertrax, or the like.

 

I've been running these for over a year and haven't had any problems although I heard wheel spacers will wear out your hubs / bearings quicker. I just replaced my front wheel bearings, rack & 2 CV axles but the CV axles ripped probably since I have a 3" lift. I even have Camburg UCA's & a diff drop. But I also have 247,000 miles and they were the original bearings & rack. I have Spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers on all 4 sides.

 

Ok I'll look into it

 

Bora spacers.....Every bit as good as Spidertrax, and they're available in more sizes. Spidertrax starts @ 1.25". Bora offers a 3/4" and 1". The 3/4" covers the lug studs by the slimmest of margins and is the thinnest bolt on spacer you can use. I've had 1" Bora's for a little over a year....33,000 miles, a fair bit of off roading, a LOT of highway miles, towing a camper trailer, and hauling a few rather heavy loads (for a Tacoma...) Not a single issue. 1" brings stock wheels right at the very edge of the fender. I'm running 265/75/16 Duratracs. They look MUCH better with the wheels spaced out. No negative effects on alignment, handling, or ride quality.

 

Ok. I gotta do alot of research before I buy, I want that bulldog look. Lol
