    Thinking about getting some spacers but i wanted to ask a question first.

    With stock height and wheels/tires will i have any rubbing issues?

    Was thinking about doing 1.25 spacers.

    Thanks!

    Note: i searched first but couldn't find a thread on this question. ;)

    Spacers take the tire "out of the pocket", and can cause rubbing, but I don't have any details about what spacer thickness and tire combos will rub, so......sorry.

    I got rid of my aftermarket rims because they pushed my wheels out past the fenders. I have no idea why you would add spacers to do this.
