2.5in spacers
 
Hey guys quick question on something that im not really knowledgeable in tires and suspension lol my question to you guys are im running a 2" leveling kit but i wanna know if my 2.5" wheel spacers make any difference in the size of the tire i can run? What i mean is would spacers help out for rubbing or would it make it worse or is it the same idk lol small story short i wanna run 35's with just a leveling kit and 2.5" spacers will it be okay?

thats what i run its all about the spacing on the rims i had 35s on 06 stockers and they rubbed the a arms then another buddy didnt rub??? idk but i have some ar mojave 16s with dang near 35s no problems

ow and btw idk if this matters but is a sport so it does have a sport front bumper you think it will matter?

you will be fine with a leveling kit with out the spacers. you would rub on the control arms a little but nothing to worry about. the spacers will stop the rubbing on the control arm but they will push the wheels way outside the fenders. if you got wheels with a little more of an offset, i have -6 offset with 35's and no rubbing, you would get the best of both worlds.

thank you i just dont want any rub at all lol thanks alot!!!

I run 315's with a 2in leveling spacer. Dont rub at full lock either direction. :c:

One other thing to consider...if you choose to run those 2.5" spacers, be prepared to replace those front unit bearings at $400.00 a piece some time in the near future. I'm assuming you have a 4x4. You'll also want to make sure your rear bearings are well packed and tight. If they're even a little loose, the extra stress of moving the tire/wheel out will eventually cause early failure.
