I had 2" spacers for like three days. Here are the results: http://thelandroverchronicles.tumblr.com/post/91898502763/got-my-2-inch-wheel-spacers-on-tonight-it-really

I loved the look and the increased stability, but I got cheap Chinese spacersmeaning they were made if cheap metal and they weren't hub centric. The wheels slid around cause by vibrations and there have been tons of reports online of cheap spacers breaking. If you get wheel spacers, the ONLY brand to get is BORA. they are super high quality and made in America. I just ordered a set for my silverado. They're hub centric instead of lug centric so the wheel can't move around. They're more than double the price of the cheap spacers, but your life and the lives of the people around are worth the extra ~$120. Go quality or don't get spacers at all.

Spidertrax were flawless on my Jeep Wranglers!! Hub Centric is the only way to go with Wheel Spacers. Red Loctite is a must (came with the Spidertrax spacers). There is no difference with using spacers or installing an aftermarket wheel with a different offset.

Not sure why my comment replied to this thread instead of the other one. I was in the other thread when I typed it...
