    I wouldn't do it personally. Not on a truck. On your 2000 pound Honda maybe, but not something this heavy that puts that much strain on them. Get Spidertraxx spacers for like $250 for 4 of them. Much better quality from what I hear. Also they're hub centric iirc.

    I wouldn’t touch any eBay spacers, spidertrax and bora are the only companies I trust for spacers. You want hub-centric, not lug-centric.

    I put a set of OrionMotorTech 1.5" spacers on my junkbox in Nov 2016. Have yet to have any vibration issues with them- the whole hub vs lug centric argument will never end, but if you install them correctly you'll never have issues.

    I do wish I went a little bigger though, I wanted more poke. But oh well, these were temporary until I get wheels :bananadance:

    For reference, the pic below is with the 1.5" spacer, and Hankook DynaPro ATM 265/75/16s

    I’ve had spider trax on my truck and Jeep and they are great. There’s two things in my life I won’t skimp on, things that hold my wheels on my truck, and toilet paper.

    Thank you sir!
    Yeah its a 5spd 4WD 4banger .Wouldn't have it any other way!

    I make mid-high 200's at 5psi currently. I pull away from the V6's with ease. My plan is doing injectors and fuel pump to get me around 10-12psi. Should put me in the low-mid 300's range.

    All I can say is .. Do it. It's so much more fun then a supercharger, and since you have to build your own kit up, it's a little more friendly on the wallet lol
