    Ok I know I'm going to get some junk on not using the search button but I have so many questions, I would be on here for 5 hours looking for answers.

    1. What wheel spacers will fit my Tacoma? I want to get them from this website http://www.ntwonline.com/Wheel_Spacers_C1017.cfm

    2. Wheel spacers come in pairs. I take it I need to buy 2 sets for all 4 wheels?

    3. Will I lose ride height with wheel spacers?

    4. Pics?

    5. Other comments that will help.

    I'm looking for 1.25" or 1.5" wheel spacers. I have a 6 lug. Sorry to be such a newb, criticism will be taken accordingly.:D

    1. I've heard nothing but good things about spydertrax spacers
    2. I've always seen them in pairs, but if you're trying to avoid clearance issues you probably only need them on the front. If you're just going for a wider look, then you'll want 2 pairs.
    3. No, wider, not lower/higher.
    4. *shrug*
    5. I'm sure others will correct me if I'm wrong about any of this.

    Spidertrax wheel spacers make the good one on market . You need the Hub centric spacers which youwon't have vibration . Also they are 1.25" .

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.

    The CB on those are made for a Chevy, which is too small for the Tacoma.

    first, get spidertrax.

    They come in pairs. I believe $99 a pair. You will need 2 pairs for all wheels.

    You do not lose or gain ride height. You will be wider by whatever the width of the spacer is.


    Alot of people dont like them. Ive been using spidertrax 1.25 on my truck for a year now. No problems, and they give a nice wide stance to the truck.

    i had them and they made my tires stick out TOO far and rub on my bumper and cab mounts. however I already have 285 tires that stuck out a tad.
    I ran them for a week and took em off

    I just put some on the front, they made the stock tires and wheels look so much better.

    Spidertrax 1.25 hub centric, easy install, and no drive vibration problems.

    i don't think they will work on ours with the manual locking hubs. I've checked and they listed on there site. I guess we're off sticking with what we have or get bigger tires or other spacers. i don't know if we use the other spacers will it cause more vibrations.

    Spidertrax for pre-Tacos fit manual hubs. I just installed them on my '90 Toyota Pickup. They are lug-centric, not hub-centric. Even got them at a discount in their scratch and dent section. Should still fit the Taco since the centerbore is the same. Just won't be hub-centric. Just did an hour and a half ride after putting them on and no vibes.
