Default Spacer?
Hey all, got some 33x11.5 inch Mud Terrains for my Unlimited X on stock suspension and am getting a little rubbing. Anyone know what size spacer I should get to prevent any future rubbing?

Thanks,

Josh

get yourself some 1.5" spacers from spidertrax. i've been running them for about 6 months with my 33's and have no complaints at all.

Yea that's what I was thinking! If that were the case though you think they'd always be sold in sets of 4 but everywhere I look they're always sold as pairs.
