Until I get alittle more money, can I run these spacers to make my wheels stick out farther. I am currently lifted 2.5 inches, but dont have the money to buy new wheels which have a better offset to fil the fender flares. So could I run 2 of these 1/4 spacers on each corner to fill the fender flares a bit more, just until I have the money to buy new wheels and tires? Or I also have the option of buying 1/4" TO 3/4" THICK HUB CENTRIC FLAT SPACERS for $40 EACH from this guy who custom makes them to a vehicles specs, but they are also a bit costly? What would you do?
How much space can I add before I need new lug bolts?
Thanks

Here's the spacer, just a generic spacer:

You don't have enough thread left for two spacers. Get a pair of decent rally spacers. I run 1 1/4 inch for over 8 years now without any problems.

I would save the money and wait for wheels personally...

Go to www.protrux.net

They have 1/2 inch spacers I believe. That would be much better than 2 1/4 inch spacers. I think they are 150.00 a pair. So if 300.00 is worth it to you to fill that amount of time....then go for it.

I think it is pretty crucial to get the spacers aligned right...or you might get wheel vibration or uneven wear. I think installation is alittle more complex than simply bolting on.

I think I'm just going to get a set of 1/4 inch generic spacers. I most likely won't see a difference but I want to try them and for $30 it's cheap

Hyperlite

All Pro Offroad has some 1.5 spacers that will make your truck 3" wider for $99

The ones Hyperlite posted are the way to go. I know several people that have had them on for years, and they still don't have any problems, even after dozens of trips hauling ass and jumping in the desert.

So it would be $200 total? Or is it $100 for all four?

The link above the pic says it is per pair. So $200 for 4 spacers.

Just 2 and what people don't tell you is aluminium spacers will loosen up with steel wheels they need to be torque checked often.

I'm running 2" spacer from StageWest4x4.com. Call em and they will make whatever size you want. I did pay $320 for all four though. I rather be wider than rollin over when I take a sports-car-corner in my truck with about 5" of lift anyday. But like Turboale said, I'd save my money and buy new aluminum wheels and get the spacers then.

Someone mentioned balancing spacers is crucial, how hard can it be? Any tips?
