hi bob well that would be a valid point , but had you actually asked why instead of taking an opportunity to take a shot . the answer to you would have been is i plan on going with larger tires and need the wheel wheel room. so i thank you for your advice and opinion but i do believe there is an old saying about opinions ?

That's why I asked, "Why not...?" It wasn't a cheap shot, it was just something that wasn't clear. If you want an intelligent asnwer, you have to supply enough info.
I would use a simople spacer block. For 1-2" They are perfectly safe, cheap, quick, and easy to install. You will also maintain the stock ride qualities.
The more you arch the spring, the harsher the ride can become; especially when empty. You could put extended shackles. But they're a lot more expensive, and more difficult to install. The have to be pretty hefty to prevent lateral flex.
