Wheel Spacers Yes or No? was created by ZukracerV6
Hey,

So I know the pros and cons to wheel spacers but still cannot decide so I'm throwing it to the floor for your views and thoughts!

I'm running a ORA 4.5 lift, with 245 70 16 on GV rims, the Jimny is still in the work shop so its not been tested yet as I have the rock lobster case to fit.

Cheers

Sam

Get them on bigger the track the better. Id rather change bearings than have a truck that is unstable

Cheers guys, I've just done a flex test and the inside front tyre wall is touching the upper coil tower so Im gonna have to widen the track. At least it's an easy mod!

Any recommendations on suppliers, I could not see them on the big jimny shop? Or I'm being thick!

FWIW I personally don't like spacers but sometimes you have to use them. I always try to go with wheels that have a greater offset.

Do it right - use Hammerite
When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.
