Installed Crager soft 8 15x8 and 33x12.5x15 Baja claws today and they look sweet I will post pictures later. 2.5 TF BB is going on Friday. All most had a scare wheels did not fit a first but with a 1/2 spacer they fit great.

 

oh yeah so know if any one needs some stock wheels let me know.

 

Hadn't heard of anyone using a 1/2" wheel spacer. There was enough thread left run them safely?

 

I will look this weekend I have to pull them back off for the lift so we will see.

 

Most will recommend the wider spacers - (bolt the spacer to the hub and then bolt the wheel to the spacer)

Seems to be a safety issue that is definitely worth looking into...

 

hey man take those spacers off and grind the front calipers down a bit for a good fitment, I had those spacers and they wont balance properly and the lug nuts will not ever stay torqued and they attach to far down the stud. The bad list goes on and on about these spacers.

The caliper grinding takes 5 mins then you can bolt your rims straight ti the mounting flange

 

I finally get to do this!!!!!



A 1/2" Spacer sounds like a sandwich spacer that doesn't bolt to the axle. Not a good or safe option IMO. If you're going to run spacers, I'd go with Spidertrax, Teraflex or RC 1.5" Spacers that bolt onto the axles and the wheels bolt onto the spacer.

 

The cheap sandwich spacers increase the bending moment on the studs. Not a good idea if you like the four wheeling (as in rolling along on 4 wheels *attached* top your JK).

 

ok you guys have some great points. I guess I just need to get my hands on a grinder now.
