Post Spidertrax 1.5" spacers VS Rough Country

Hi everyone,

I am currently looking for some spacers for my stock 16" steelies and was wondering if there was any difference in the Spidertrax vs the Rough Country versions.... The RC ones are way cheaper.

I have the Rough Country ones. In almost a year of daily use, no problems to report.

There are a million threads out there on this topic, including in-depth scientific analysis. I have the RC's and have been very happy with them.

Love my Spidertrax. I have had them on for about 5 months now and no problems. I have not tried any other brands

I have the RC and they feel strong and work well for what I needed. (Running Stock Wheels)

Sure its just a personal preference.

I had Spidertrax and ran them for over 80,000kms with no problems....I just got rid of them when I upgraded and got rid of my stock wheels.....i dont think you can wrong with the RC or Spidertrax.....but I would definitely stay away from the cheapies you see on Ebay.
