be careful buying knockoff spacers...the ones that have failed have had wrong studs in them IIRC. Don't forget about Teraflex's spacers and they're steel. I run 'em and have no complaints at all.

Spydertrax, or Teraflex. Don't skimp on some ebay-who-knows-what-it-is Crap!
It's best to keep your wheels on your Jeep! By the way: I LOVED my 1.5" Spidertrax!

Don't want to be on a trail and have your wheel come off cause you broke the spacers.

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.
they are 35s, mickey thompson MTZs

I just bought four spidertrax 1.5" used. When I went to install them I notice a stud with a thread or three was mashed. Can this be fixed? One stud on two different spacers. What lucj
