I will probably just end up buying wheels at the same time and down sizing to 17's. MAYBE even 16's.... But spacers was a new idea that was brought to my attention recently so I was just curious what others thought!
No need to make apologies or excuses for asking questions - you're certainly not the first (or the last) who will have these questions!

What do you guys suggest I do?

Take it from someone who has done both, spacers on my mt wheels, flexing tears off my fenders every time, so I got a set of crawlers less spacers with 4.5" back spacing and no issues.
