Post subject:  Wheel Space Size
I'm looking at getting some wheel spacers for the KJ since I am putting in the 245/75/16 rethreads...

Would anyone know what size wheel spacers I should go with? I was looking at the 2" spacers on ebay for $130 shipped. Or should I look for something smaller?

IF...you have to run them go with spidertrax they are the best and do you really want to go cheap on something that is hold ing your butt off the ground? 2 inches would be too thick as well

Just remember you will now have 40 lugnuts to keep tight instead of 20,and Locktite is your friend.

get the 1.25" spacers, and you dont have to get them but you will rub at full lock with those tires, I did and I went with spacers for a little while then I just got new wheels, which is what I would recommend doing, it doesnt really cost you that much extra then the spacers and they look better and have no spacers and are stronger.

What wheels do you recommend? Something like the Soft 8's with 4" BS?

What BS do I have to look at in order to minimize the rubbing?

Nice I wanted those but they dont have my size and I dont have a lift. So I think im going with the 225/75/16 MUD. They a little taller but a lil skinnier so they should fit with a lil mod.

those are great tires, I have those exact same ones with somewhere around 15-20k on them and they still look great, they are a little loud on the highway but nothing that cant be fixed by turning the radio up lol.
I replied to your PM :wink:
