Crazy! I'm in Bethel, and luckily, I was going to the Bucco game after work, so I missed all the horrendous traffic Friday night..!
What did you do with your 4runner today?

You got lucky. I was around the Century 3 area....nightmare. I was supposed to go down to the casino that night but needless to say the state of 51 and the traffic surrounding it kept us home lol

More than i should have since i am still recovering from shoulder surgery. I was just tired of not being able to do anything and tired of looking at these toys sitting in the box.
When i had my stock Enkei wheels i had Spidertrax spacers on to make it sit just right. When i switched over to the BBS wheels i didn't used the spacers since the backspacing was different and they are a wider wheel. I was fine with the look as they were but just wanted it to be a little different.
I ended up ordering a set of .75" wheel spacers from Motorsport Tech, under the name BORA. Wheel Adapters, Wheel Spacers, Hub Rings, and much more! | Motorsport Tech I didn't want a big spacer, so this was what i was looking for. Besides the width and being anodized black, they are just like the Spidertrax.
It wasn't a major change but just enough to get the wheels out a little from dead even with the fenders.
I am really pleased with the look.
Now just need to get back to letting my shoulder heal....:redbrick:

Top notch as always! Looks great. .

Looks great !
I am considering something similar since my wheels already increased the overall width by 1.5" due to difference in offset compared to stock.
The additional 2.5" from a set of Spidertrax would be too much but I wasn't sure if the 0.75" thick aluminum provided enough of an anchor for the lugs.
I'm sure Motorsport has put the research into the strength and durability of these spacers, I just don't get the same warm and fuzzy feeling as when I see the lugs buried in a full 1.25" of aluminum.

Same here, but I've been running my spidertrax for a full 2 years now with zero issues. (knocks on wood)

I did not do a good job with the camera so I need to do some editing before posting.
I will be back next year and probably stay at KOA again.

Nice! I can't wait to see them. Gaterose (Matt) from here is talking about going as well. It would be cool to meet other forum guys out there for sure.

Thanks for posting the vid, I had heard about 51 flooding but didn't see any pics or vids. I wouldn't want to take my 4Runner through that, it amazes me people try driving their little 4bangers through it

Funny that you say that, because that's exactly what I did 10 minutes later. Nissan has full insurance.
