Spacers. Adapters are for using wheels with a different bolt pattern. For example, JK wheels on a TJ

No problem. Just make sure they are for 5x5 bolt pattern wheels.

Good advice... Back to the question, you want spacers, not adapters. I would just go with a reputable 1.5" spacer, like Spidertrax.

I run 2" spacers and 33" Cooper Zeon LTZs on my factory rims. It has a nice stance and a great look.
