Hub centric wheel spacers

[Billgmcallen]

I have some rubbing on my tires and I'm thinking about getting some 1.5 inch spacers...I know a lot of people don't like them but I want to keep my stock rims and don't want to dish out a bunch of money for rims with less back spacing. That being said I'd like to know if anyone else uses them or has problems with them. My truck is a 91 k1500 with 285/75r16.

Properly torqued they are fine. Make sure it's T6 cast aluminum. Don't cheap out that's all I'll say.

Agreed, I've also used them, red locktite paste on the inner nuts and you're golden.

I use spidertrax myself

man im glad i checked this thread. i know where ill be ordering spacers from now. i only have one question. would i have to trim my studs if i got 1.5 inch spacers. thats been the main thing holding me back. i thought about 2 inch spacers but dont want the tires to stick out past the fender just to the edge or a little under. thanks for any and all replys.
