does anyone know what the smallest wheel spacer you can run on 285/75/17 toyo tires? I was thinking of 3/8 or 1/2 " but some one told me you cant get a full lug on the 1/2" spacer.

 

With the stock studs I think 3/8" might be the max but I don't know if that will give you enough space between the tires. Most people I think run a 2" spacer or you could replace the studs with longer ones.

 

I am thinking 3/8" would be the bare minimum, I just went with the 2" ones in case I want to upgrade to 35"-37" later, plus you don't have to worry about trimming the studs or not having enough lug.

 

i did the same thing

 

I am going with 1.5 inches just to keep tires from sticking out extra half inch, beyond wh. wells. ( I know, its, not much). ---if they even sell that size, I'm kind of afraid of the aluminum ones, looking at Arrowcraft.com all steel, no aluminum used.

 

the guy from wheeladapter.com will build you any size you want. they are steel and good quality. give him a call see what he says

 

i have gotten 2, 2" spacers from wheeladapter.com and had absolutly no troubles from them. I have heard from a 4 wheel drive shop that some other brands didn't fit correctly or cracked and just didn't hold up. I don't believe that you can get anything less than 2" without having to trim the studs. What is an extra 1/2" anyway, the mud still flies everywhere. The ones I just bought for my 07 cost $375 I believe delivered.

 

Thanks rollin smoke, that is just what I will do.

 

You are right Sip, I am going to get the 2 inch. Not worth having to cut the wheel studs off for half inch.

 

bringing this back from the dead,
anybody running this spacers from ebay? i really don't feel like spending 300 from wheeladapter or whoever.
thx

I bought my 2" from performance tire in Denver. I think they were @ 95 ea. Very nice quality tough pcs. JM.02

 

each spacer was 95 bucks?

 

I run a 2 inch on my 03 and have for over a 100,000 miles with no problems pulling or anything. There are studs built into my spacers and the holes for the sock studs are counter sunk. Think I got them from performance wheel, also I an runnin 285s currently in the past though I ran 35x12.50 no tire rub even loaded

 

what is the biggest tire i can run without any spacers??
