    Just the stock studs. But, my wheels DO use the tapered lug nuts that actually fit inside a cone shaped opening in the rims, so there seems to be plenty of threads for them to grab on to...

    If that were the case, this would be a regular thing on here. I'm on here too much to be considered healthy, and I haven't seen this before.

    Take one of the dang front wheels off, it is one of the easiest things you can do with your truck other than changing the air filter. 5 or 10 minutes max with a short break for a brewski...

    I was thinking spindles for sure.

    Has to be spacers....wheels don't just stick out that far up front and hardly at all in the back.


    I'm betting a 2" spacer
