Wheel spacer questions

[ramrunner56]

I'm looking for a wide stanced out look on my truck. I love the look of 20x14's but hate that stretched look. I'll be using my current tires (33x12.5) on 20x12 wheels so my tires aren't real stretched. I'd like to run a 2 inch spacer with those so that they stick out farther. Now will that be equivalent of a 20x14 wheel? What will the offset be? And what are some good brands for spacers.

Idk a out what the offset will be, but BORA makes the best spacers! They're custom made and you pay for it, but definitely worth it. They're also hub centric

What lift and wheels do you plan on running with those tires and stance? That will determine how wide you can actually go. It's a combination of everything together to determine what will fit.

Are there any other brands that are close to them in quality but a little cheaper? I don't want a crappy spacer as I know they're really important but don't wanna pay $300 for boras unless I have to

I have a prerunner bumper on its way so I don't have to worry about rubbing that. No lift, but I'll be running bilsteins at max up front with -44 20x12 fuel throttles.

I don't know of other brands, honestly though man don't cheap out on the spacers! You get what you pay for, I had a buddy with ****** China ones lose a wheel into a field one night! Just blew off the truck!

In that case I'll pay the extra money for good ones

When they come in you'll be glad you did! They're great quality and you'll feel safe going down the road with them!

Fully agree with xrsman. Spend the money and get the BORA spacers. You don't want to cheap out on an item that's holding your wheels/tires onto your truck. The BORA spacers are great quality and you won't be disappointed with the product.

With that wide of a wheel, tire, and stance you are going to rub on the back of the inner fender for sure. You'll need to trim up some of the plastic and possibly bend over the pinch weld as well.

I don't remember if I said it in this thread, but I have an nfab rsp front bumper on its way which should allow me to not rub anything. If you think it'll rub still I'm all ears

Yes you did. The bumper will give you tons of clearance on the front... that's not where the issue is. It's the back of the front fender that you're going to rub. As I mentioned above you'll be trimming the plastic fender liner for sure and will possibly have to bend over the pinch weld behind it in order to clear and actually have a turn the tires.

 

[ramrunner56]

Ohh I see. Well I'll just see what happens and I'll trim whatever I have to
