    So these wheels I bought fit perfectly in the rear of the cab no problem whatsoever. However my dumb self did not take into account of the calipers in the front and prevent me from properly placing the wheels on the truck. They are 265/75/R16 bfg ko2s. So I wonder if I was to use the stock front (painted same gloss black of course) and perhaps a spacer without any negative effects such as on the differentials or any other issue. (other than it looking a bit silly with 2 different set wheels). I want to know before I decide on something else such as spacers longer threads and shaving the calipers. Any input welcomed thank you.

    Let me rephrase. What I mean is having a huge difference between the spaces of the wheels. The front with a 1 inch spacer and the 4 in 12mm offset in the back. And thanks for clarification on them being able to fit stock no spacer
