Mod done! should have come this way, much better ride. no more nose dive etc

Here's a noob question: What's the point of the spidertrax? Just to fit wider tires, or would it give stock wheels/tires a wider base so better looks and stability?

How does it ride?

Is the ride any more firm now?? I don't like the nose dive but like the ride. I am thinking about putting the same shocks on my 4 Runner

the wheel spacers (or "adapters", as some may say) just push the wheels further out. nothing to do with fitting different size tires.

I just like the look of the wider stance given by wheel spacers. As for the ride it feels just as smooth as before i think, just not so boaty feeling and loose. A big improvement!

Yes, the ride will be more firm. I don't find it hard, but you do give up a bit of the softness in exchange for the dive/squat. I prefer it..... a lot.

How about leaning during turns? Has that improved (i.e. reduced) too?<O</O

Thanks!<O</O

Ditto.


Did you also do a daystar type spacer in rear?
