Default Spidertrax ?

Has anyone had problems with Spidertrax wheel spacers? I have a 2013 td, and have 285/70/17 tires on the factory rims. Should I go with 1.5" or 1.75".
Thanks!

I've been running 1.5" for 12,000 miles without any problems. I'd probably go 1.75" if I had to do it again.

Edit: I have 35/12.50

I've got 1.75" to give me the equivalent of 4.5" backspace for my stock wheels.

I ran the same tire size and stock rims with 1.5 and it worked great. The stance worked and looked good, tires stuck out just a little past the fenders. I think the 1.75 would be too much for the tire size you are running. Just my 2 cents of course.

I think for that tire size 1 1/2 should be good. Ive been running them for about 6k now and theyve been fine. Wish I would have went 1 3/4 since I made the move up to 37's.
