Rim options ... Wheel spacers?

Postby starman8tdc » Thu Apr 28, 2016 4:32 pm

I want to push my tires out past the fenders. Wheel spacers are an option, but I would need longer studs to make any rear difference, which Im not in favor of. So maybe I need some wheels that have a different offset? What do I need to do to push the tire out?

Longer studs are only needed if you're going with thinner spacers, like .5" or .25". Thicker spacers in the 1"+ range need OE studs, because they'll have six holes for them, and provide 6 new studs for attaching the wheel.
