Continuing with mods, after exhaust need advise, pls.

[mephisto]

Once again hello all and thank you for all the help so far. I have done my Borla exhaust after recommendations and opinions. Loud it is, but I do like it. Want to thank you all again.

I had to take some time off for make move across country so I was not able to do much, but I am settled in again, and need more stuff.

Next I would like to install SPACERS, seems to be easiest and least $$ to do. I have read reviews and posts and seems that only two brands out there are: Spidertrax and Daystar.

Q: If money is no issue, are there any other choices for spacers. I know it is simple item, but anyone else uses anything else? Not saying one is better, just asking if there are any other brands?

Q2: I have original tires, 265/65/16. What would be max tire size I could install with out any modification (spacers are assumed installed)? I am not buying larger wheels, just replacing tires due to high miles.

Q3: Once spacers are installed, I will proceed to lift kit, 3" at least. No question here, just as a reference if anyone is willing to provide me with help for above Q and Q2.

Thank you
M.

Few things:
Daystar is a lift spacer, not a wheel spacer.
As far as wheel spacers, you have Spidertrax and AllPro
I'd do Lift before wheel spacer all both at once
if you do wheel spacers, you'll need to do trimming.
You should do some more research, these topics are covered repeatedly.

Thank you, yes I do agree topics are coverd and yes I did miss the name for other spacer brand.
Thank you for recommendation on doing them both at once.

Anyone knows good honest shot in Hartford CT area?

Also, Do you off road? If not, Spacer lift might be sufficient and more cost effective than full suspension systems like Icon, Overland, Toytec Ultimate, etc...

If you don't offroad, you can check out Spacer lift options Daystar, Cornfed, Toytec. Most people who offroad grow out of the spacers fairly quick.

Do you need to do trimming with wheel spacers when you use coilover lifts?

Thank you. In Colorado, where I was before coming to CT, I had plans to go off-road. Now, in CT, Im not sure where to go off-road. However assuming I find some local people willing to show me roads, I would love to give it a try here.

Bottom line is that this relocation to CT was for wife's job, so to make it easy on me I get to buy some nice toys. I love Colorado, move east was not on my list, anywhere on that list.

So I do not have budget limit, well to some extent.

If you got options, please do share.
Thank you
M
