Cool Another Wheel Spacer Question

Seriously thinking of running Spider Trax spacers (the biggest they got) on my stock 17 inch wheels/32 inch SRA's. Will running spacers void the warranty? The JK is a 2010 unlimited. It has 12000 miles and I brought her home in November, 2009. Any input would be great! Thanks a lot.

God Bless all of you, in Jesus' name.

glad to know it wont viod my warranty...just so you know op...some states dont allow you to have tires out past the fenders...so that might be illegal. here in montana they dont care...if anything they pull you over to say hey nice ride man...those tires are sick! and as for tire shops...i wouldnt know...the owner of the local tire shop where i bought my wheels and tires from is a hardcore jeeper too...he uses wheel spacers so he wouldnt frown upon installing em and checking on em for me if i go that route.

What size are u going with? Bc u said the biggest they have n I wouldn't got bigger than 1 1/2. If u go any bigger I'd sugest getting bigger wheel studs bc 2 inch spacers is putting a lot of stress on ur studs and ight break if put to much weight on them.

Here are my pics. I love the way it looks, the stands are wider and I don't know if its in my head, but when I corner it feels better.
