Wheel spacer pics?

[68PowerWagon]

Anyone on here have before & after pictures of installed wheel spacers? And what size did you go with? I am thinking of installing some 1" on my truck. I know that is not much... most people that install these go with 2-3" but I do not want anything that aggressive.

I too am interested to see the after pics. I think 1" would be perfect

there are only two wheel adaptors I would use and that is Spidertrax and BORA. I think with 1" you would need to trim your studs.

I have to be honest, the thought of spacers on a HD trucks scare the **** out of me, not something I would ever do. You are looking at ~$400 for 4 spacers, you are 1/4 of the way towards new wheels which seems like a better option in my book.

Just food for thought.

I just installed a set of Titan 2” on my power wagon. Obviously on a 4th gen but should give an idea. Looks like you are just up the road from me.

Thanks for sending pics of your set up.

Bora is what I will get, if I get some.

Another vote for no spacers. I don't like them on a half ton, on a one ton, no chancy Mr Whalen!

Yeah like it was mentioned you will need to trim your studs if you go with 1” but I do think you would be able to get by with 1.5”. I know I have at least a half an inch or close to it to the stud with my 2”. This is the 3rd set of Titan‘s I have used without issue but the boras are definitely good ones. Not sure spidertrax make them for the heavy duty trucks.

If you read my first post... I am asking for pictures & size of spacers that you installed. Not opinions.

NICE!!! A little hard to tell from the two pics since you added flares at the same time, but very nice!

Wheel spacers are like a corvair unsafe at any speed I had spidertrax 2 inch on my jeep the wheel came off while my missus was on the highway got a pretty excited phone call at work she was a little freaked out.that’s on a jk jeep I wouldn’t do it on my 9000lb pw imho

Do what you want just make sure your insurance is paid up and tell your wife and kids you love them every day before you leave the house

It's nice to see someone that actually puts on flares to cover his tires when they stick out. LOL

Don’t know if y’all realize this but every dually pickup on the road has wheel spacers on the front.

Exactly! And it is no different than running off set wheels. Just need to add it to a regular maintenance item (tire rotation schedule). Check the torque regularly and you will be fine. Had them on 4 different vehicles and never had an issue including hd trucks. Not for everyone but thats ok.
