May be tough to see but here it is without spacers. You will def see the diff.


Also look at the jeep on the left, the stock tire is sucked in.

Spidertrax user since 2008. Yes you will see a difference and yes you will love it! Don't forget to remove the little clips at the base of wheel studs though before installing the spacers.

Easiest way to tell is if you were to hypothetically stick a ruler vertical to the fender and the ground do you see the tire recessed in or do you see it sitting flush with the ruler?

I ran spacers on my Jeep when I got it. It was my first mod with my 100% stock Jeep.

I have since moved to new rims.

Absolutely do not buy a no name spacer on ebay. All of the horror stories that j h e ears involve ebay spacers. If you are going to do it spend the extra few bucks and get spidertrax.

I like the wider stance. It will give your jeep a nice look. Go for it!
