broke a lug off of my axle. Found out I have spacers, keep or remove? ASAP!!!
Help!!

I was already missing one lug and went to paint my rims, one of the lugs broke off and now im wondering if I should remove the spacers?

I think I can replace the lugs, but looks wise and such, should I keep spacers?

i have a 3" suspension lift and 285/75/16's

I need to know asap!!

Im not sure about replacing wheel studs on spacers but on a regular set up its easy to do. If you have 285 you will need a spacer of some sort to keep from rubbing on your UCA's depending on your wheel backspacing.

I think you may need the spacers to clear your tires ... replace all of the studs and torque the lugs to spec and you shouldn't have many more problems... you can also check the backspacing on your rims and figure out if you can ditch the spacers that's the only reason anyone usually has them in the first place

Removed spacers, looks sweat! I never knew I had them..

No rubbing, previous owner had 35"s on it so he did a few mods
