Make sure the shop is kosher with spacers. Most national chains will refuse the job.

Just a heads up...Discount tire just mounted my tires with spacers. They are cool with bolted spacers now according to the manager.

Discount Tire here in Georgia won't touch them...unless something has changed in the last few months.

Many don't want the liability.

I have two pretty good friends that work at Discount tire at different locations in Michigan...neither will touch them or rotate my tires even though I bought my Duratracs from them and my family has been buying tires from them for over 20 years.

I'm going to a little shop tomorrow that installed my exhaust for me in Lake Orion. The owner's wife has a heavily modded JK (forgot which company he sent it to) and he seemed pretty cool...hopefully he will remember me and take care of it. Otherwise I'll just ask my buddies to help me out.

I just bought a set of used spacers. I picked up a tube of the blue loctite. Should be installed here soon
