you'll need both for the reason of stuffing the stock rims you'll want the backspacing spacers will provide.

NH4x4... are those 34s or 35s?

Anyone have any experience with the spacers available on eBay? They're cheap...$120 for a full set of 1.25 inch ones. I don't know where they come from though. Spydertrax's website says they're out of stock for JK spacers.

Note: Be carefull with the 1.25" spacers. They may not completely cover the factory studs and can cause serious issues. It's better to just go 1.5" and avoid that problem entirely.

Got mine at Northridge 4X4 for $100 with free shipping.
