Wheel Spacers? Yay or Nah?
I've been thinking of doing this as well. Pushing the wheels out a little bit looks a lot better. I might have to pick some up. I'm too poor right now to buy aftermarket wheels and tires. And unfortunately that situation doesn't look to change any time soon.
I think it looks good either way that it's your choice. I have a set I'm going to "look at" this weekend also but I just put a lift on so I'm doing it to see if there's any percieved difference in ride quality with and without.
As has been said the 1 1/2 wheel spacers will not change the ride, your JK's behavior up hill and dale will be the same. Where you will see a difference is handling. A 3 inch wider stance will give you a sense of attachment to the road that you just don't have with a narrower track. With my factory 32's they come out to the edge of my flares. I run steps, so sidesplash is not an issue. I've been running mine for 14 months, over 20,000 miles with ABSOLUTELY NO ISSUES. I would rebuy them in a minute, the quickest, simplest mod with the most immediate results you can do.
I was running the Teraflex spacers for about 8 months and they did a great job on road and off. Had 33 KM2s on stock wheels and need them for clearance. I would definitely recommend them. I was a little worried at first about getting them but they were safe as could be. Use LocTite and torque them correctly and you will be good to go. Just got new wheels and tires so they just came off.
