I'm sure someone is, but I wouldn't. With flares, sure.

That's a clean look. Just enough poke, good amount of tire...debating if I want to go 33/12.50's or 275/65... looks like I might look into some spacers when I'm ready to do tires though.

You enjoy changing ball joints and wheel brgs go for it.Not to mention the paint/body damage.JMHO.



It's been proven over and over that spacers are no worse then offset wheels. But if you for some reason dont believe it, I sure hope you never look at what is on the front axle of a dually from the factory.

Had been wondering if anyone tried a 12.5" wide tire on an 8" wide wheel. I know most tire manufactures don't recomend them but it doesn't look too bad. How are they holding up?
Correct me if I'm wrong,but aren't those 9" wide, as compared to 8" on the sports?

I may be wrong....just ask my wife.

You're right.Offset wheels do the same thing.The geometry of the the front end is built to use a certain offset.Any variation will speed up the wear process.It's simple physics,you're adding more leverage on the center axis of the balljoints and wheel brgs.

And everyone on this forum with non factory offset wheels and or spacers are having rampant wheel bearing and ball joint failures?

If so , why dont we hear about it ?

J'ai toujours eu des élargisseurs sur mes 4x4 et je n'ai jamais eu de problème de roulement par la suite, il ne faut pas en mettre des trop épais
