Wheels Spacers and Stock Wheels.
Found these on eBaY.I really really want to fit Destination MT's, but I think its a given that they will rub the upper A-Arms because of the lugs. How do these look quality wise? Looks like a decent deal to me. Those running wheel spacers, what are your biggest issues? After searching it seems like its just if anything vibrations...is this it?

Had wheel spacers on mine. Took them off because of the vibrations. Always seemed like the wheels were out of balance. I have a set of 4, each is 1.5", with the lugs. It gave my 4Runner 3" of overall width. Looked good, but I didn't like the vibration. Some people can deal with it and don't mind, but I do quite a bit of highway driving and couldn't. Anyway, I'll be selling them soon.

be careful with spacers though, a guy put spacers on his old impala, and the studs werent long enough for the spacer, and sure enuf, they wouldnt tighten all the way, and the wheel fell off with him and his kids inside. he then called my work and said that we did a shoddy job.. just be careful with the spacers

I have the same spacers on mine with 1.5" and they work fine, although with the 5 spoke stock wheels there is just a tap bit of ribing on the plastic at the back of the wheel well. But a little trimming and it is gone. with 1" spacersit should not rub at all.
I took some before and after pics of the scacers on my truck, they are in the link in my sig. The stock pics are without the spacers and the laters ones have them you can see the differnce and i LOVE the look i will never be taking them off except to get new wheels. And i don't have any probems with iberations. Just make sure you tourqe them right.

How would you know which site I bought mine from, and why would you suspect I payed more?!!! I got mine for $75 !!! I wasn't attacking your choice to buy from ebay... Personally, if the deal is that good I wouldn't buy them. I seen janky crap come from ebay.

Just realized that that is for two. I heard from a little birdy that SpiderTrax where the best. Because they are specifically designed for specifically OEM specs and fit perfectly. 99 bucks a pair though...

LOL, as i said i spent a long time looking and was able to snatch a deal for mine.
Oh if you do get some off ebay look for ones with the best offer option, try an offer and see what happends. I had offered them $35 figureing they would turn it down and i would spend the $65 for them but they came back with $55 so i took it!
