Ok so the delima i'm strapped for cash and i see there are many types of wheel spacers that are out there. What ones are good? i know spidertrax are good but pricy. Help me out if you can looking for a 1.5 wheel spacer to get as close to 4.5 backspacing as i can. Suggestions and link if you know somewhere they are cheap thankyou.
spidertrax are pricey but with them, you'll know you are getting a well made product and one that uses quality studs. i have run them for years on all my jeeps at one time or another and without any issues. lesser spacers tend to use cheap studs and this is where most end up failing. having said that, i have no experience with the spacers that RC or TF make but, they are more affordable.

Thanks wol. i saw the RC and Teraflex ones just don't know to much about them as well as any real mods to a jeep as this is my first wrangler and i'm new to everything.
I bought my spidertrax directly from them but they were "blemish" ones. Check their website under the Outlet. They usually have them there for $90 per pair. On the ones I bought the anodize wasn't perfectly matching colors. You can't tell when they are installed.
I will be buying mine from there when I decide to buy them. Thanks for the info.

Alright thanks for your thoughts and advice. i'm always looking for more advice on my jeep as i'm new to this world. i wasn't sure if used ones would be a good idea but i guess if they are in decent enough shape then that could be my best bet. i know theres a point of quality parts but for some things you can cheap out cause it doesn't really to much, just didn't know if this was one of those things.
