Wheel Spacers Installed

Purchased 2" wheel spacers this past week. Installed this weekend. Looks great, need some taller / wider shoes now.

 

Looks very nice! are you running your stock rims and if so which rims do you have? I have the TRD off road alloys and was thinking of putting 1.25" spacers but can't find much stock height/rim pictures of what it would look like. I want it to be flush with the fender and not stick out to far.

 

I have stock 16's with 1.25 spacers and they're flush with the fender.

 

Sorry the picture is massive. I had to post it with Tapatalk.

 

Thank you for the reply, your truck looks nice and I like the wider stance. my truck is all stock and I am so torn! My rims are 16x7 and I want to keep the same stock tire size as well which is 245/75/16's therefore I don't know if I need the 1.25" or 1.5" spacers to make it flush with the fender.

 

Thanks! I like the wider stance too! I just need bigger shoes now I would say you'd be good with 1.25! The back sticks out a hair, and I mean a hair. You'd be happy with them! They're exactly what you're looking for!

 

So with that said I'm guessing the 1.5" will be too much? Lol and I've been back and forth with going with new wheels and tires so much I make myself dizzy! I do like the TRD wheels though and want to keep them and eventually go with a more aggressive looking tire when I do need to get new ones but I'd stay with the P rated stock tire size though. Geez what .25" does to a person in deciding something! Lol I don't want to little and I definitely don't want to much! Also, I have another question, when measuring what sticks out of the fender do you go by tire thread or by the side wall bulge of the tire?

 

I read the 1.5 is too much! That's why I went with the 1.25. And the farther you space out the more leverage the truck weight has on the wheel bearing causing premature wear. That's something to consider when thinking about spacers. I go by the whole thing! I'm planning on going to 255 85 16s next year when my tires are worn out. And that will give me exactly what I'm looking for. I have 245 75 16s on it now though!

 

Do you have Dunlop Grandtreks too or BF goodrich tires? Looks like BF's. I'm glad you have the same size tire that I do because I get to see the real look with the 1.25" spacers and I like it! The 1.5 will be too much and I don't want that cause I certainly don't want or need a ticket for it sticking out! Lol

 

I have BFG All Terrains!

 

Thanks so much for your help TacoMitch! I ordered my 1.25" spacers today and should get them on Tuesday! I appreciate the help, advise and picture!

 

No problem! Good luck with them

 

I also have stock TRD 16 OR rims with spider trax 1.25 spacers. Stick out past rims about 1/2 inch.

 

It sticks out past the rim by 1/2" or did you mean past the fender?

 

Fender. Sorry for the mistake.

 

No problem at all G8keepr! I was just wondering.

 

What's the back spacing on those?

 

Without spacers- 5.25''
