Wheel spacers?
Ok
So on a trail on the weekend I noticed that my new 37's rub the inside of my king shocks. Also, they catch the brake line on one side BETWEEN the shocks and the tire.
I am considering doing spacers.
What do you all think of that? Pros vs Cons?

good spacers (like spydertrax) are good. The only problem you will find is they will kill your wheel hubs about every 15 to 20k mi's. You know this has happened when your ABS kicks in randomly. But it will shut off after 2 events. I like em, plus it really gave the jeep a mean look.

I've had mine on for 50,000 m. No issues
