spacers with stock tire and wheel
ok so i just picked up a set of spidertrax spacers so i can use my stock wheels for the 35's that are gonna go on soon but i have a couple questions...
whats the torque spec on these, should i use blue or red loctite on the lugs for these, should i replace the nuts since they're used?
how are these gonna look with the stock wheels and tires? i'll find out when i get it into the shop at school this week but just wondering if anybody else has done it

Please post up pics once you have the spacers on with your stock wheels and tires. I'm ordering a set this week too. I'd like to see how it sits until I get my new tires.

Just put spidertrax on mine and used blue loctite. As far as torque specs go I think 100lbs is what is recommended, but I just tightened mine as tight as I could without overdoing it.

I use red cause they aren't coming off anytime in the near future but blue is perfectly fine as well. As long as you use either. And yes 90-100lbs same as wheel specs.
No need to replace the lug nuts. Just clean all the dirt oil and grunge off them and ur good to go.
