1.5 or 2" wheel spacers?

would there be a downside to running 2" wheel spacers over 1.5" wheel spacers? i am getting some rubbing on arm. and i like the look of the tires stickin out a bit.

thanks guys

I run 1.5" wheel spacers on my 84 to clear the front calipers cause I put some IFS alloys on it. Makes the stance a bit more aggressive.

I'm also thinking of putting 1-1.5 spacers all around. Let me know how they work for you. My km2's rub a lil bit on the sway bar. Plus the extra width looks really good on the pick ups
