Just curious...do wheel spacers with stock size tires & stock height provide any extra benefit to ride and handling?

No only thing you will get is lots of rubbing on the flares by the tires

youll get a wider stance, but at the cost of severe rubbing. Not worth doing unless you lift the kj first. I run 1" spacers on mine, lifted 3". No rub issues up front, but at full articulation the rear fender lips like to pop off....

thats with 265/75/16 setup

I always felt it made my rims and tires look better.
