I just put on the spidertrax 1.5 spacers on mt 2 door JK with no lift and 18 sahara wheels . I looks great and rides perfect. I highly recommend these for anyone looking to get that wider stance without changing rims. It's a total of 3 inches wider and looks like it shoud have been this way from the factory. I will try to get pics up, but it's the best $200 you can spend on your JK . My 2cents opinion

 

I did this as well to my Sahara.....Luv it!

 

 

Check out the yellow unlimited photo galleries page 4 adapters 006,007,008. This is my JK with 1.5 spacers. I have NO complaints, I really do like this simple mod. Enlarge the photos for a true perspective on the stance.

 

I just put mine on tonite too. Stock 32x10 tires on 17" stock wheels.

Come to think of it. Stock does look a lil bit inset without the spacers..with them , it makes them look better.

 

I just put the same spacer's on my Rubi a couple of weeks ago....I'm with you, LOVE EM'. You're 100% right and I was thinking the same thing after I installed mine.. "This Jeep should come from the factory with this stance".

Although, I have noticed that quite a bit more water/dirt/mud gets slung on the side of my Jeep than before I installed the spacers....But I ain't complaining..

I was going to put spacers on my JK, but no one would sell them in this area. They report they are noted for breakage and are un-safe. Has anyone had problems with theirs? I like the look they give.

 

Yeah - there are a TON of people who are familiar with the "PepBoys Specials", the spacers that are like metal plates with holes and slots in them....and which depend upon the lug nuts to hold the spacer tight, sandwiched between the rim and hub.

THOSE spacers ARE unsafe and ARE failure prone, and are WHY people say bad things about spacers...true things, as those spacers ARE BAD.



We are NOT talking about THOSE spacers though, we are talking about Steel or Aluminum spacers that actually bolt to the hub with their own lugs, and then the rim bolts on to it directly...These spacers ARE fine, no problems.




So, sandwiched between rim/hub, no dedicated attachments = BAD



Bolted to rim, and to hub, separately, = GOOD

 

I had to install spacers because I plan on keeping the stock wheels and I love the look. If you 33's or close you might need a BB so you don't rub the fender at full flex.
