Ok, my turn! So, I want to buy wheel spacers right now and get them to Vegas ASAP. Are there any other brands aside from spidertrax which are good quality, i.e. fit, finish, strength ect. which wont cost me an arm and leg compared to spidertrax? I don't mind paying for quality, but just want to explore any options just in case. Im looking at some on ebay from a company named Integrity Automotive. They claim to be constructed of good material, heat treated studs ect. The cost right now if I grab them are half of the spidertrax. Lastly, is the 1 1/4" the best thickness to go with? Reason Im asking is, after my current 275's wear out, I plan on going for a 285/75/17. Im standing by waiting to spend my Christmas dough! lol

AllPro hubcentric are excellent quality. Ran mine without issue. Another member here is running mine now since I bought new wheels.
 
Thanks for the quick response. Two questions; 1-What sort of issues have members been reporting while using spacers?
2-Whats your thoughts on using the 1.5" spacers? I want the perfect look and maximum performance. I don't want the truck to look disproportionate. Im looking for the sporty fast look. Kind of like the truck looks fast or aggressive just sitting there. lol
 
Just looked at the Allpro site. Im ready to pull the trigger.
Another question again.
Did you and should I purchase the ET lug nuts?
Also to go with the 1.25, or the 1.5 dilemma?
Thanks

Get the ET nuts for the front wheels. Not nessisary for the rear.

I'm currently running spidertrax 1.25" in the front and 1.5" all pro rear. IMO looks more even this way and hella flush...lol

Both spidertrax and allpro hubcentric spacers are very durable on and off-road and have excellent reviews. just make sure u install the lug nuts the correct way and use red locktight
 
One more to consider is Motorsport Tech. Whatever you do, make sure you get hub-centric spacers (Spidertrax, All Pro, Motorsport Tech). Most cheaper ones are lug centric and are not recommended.
 
Awesome info guys thanks! Glad you went with the 1.25/1.5 combo. After I did some measuring I got to thinking about going with the 1.25/1.5 combo deal. Thanks for all the quick responses fellas. Im placing my order soon as Im off this site.

Hey, I just want to let you know that if All-Pro doesn't have the spacers in stock you could be waiting a month or more for them to ship. They are however, excellent quality as was said earlier.

Ark, Lenny is a great guy to deal with. He calls you to confirm orders, lets you know when they're being made, and when they ship. Purchased a set of 1" spacers from him awhile ago. But one of the first things I noticed when I received the spacers, compared to my old All-Pro's was that the hub ring is much thinner (not sure if this is good or bad) even still, they are excellent quality spacers also.

Just a word of caution. I put my spidertrax on a few days ago and now I am rubbing like crazy. I have about 3 inches of lift up front, but I guess that's not enough for 285/70's. The good news is this gives me an excuse to do a 1.5" body lift.
 
As kkz said allpro little slow so I would personally ask if in stock if you go that route ! Lenny makes his as ordered & their black very cool , probably still quicker from him & you can actually talk with ! Did i mention CHEAPER too ? Check his website diff sizes so you could go 3/4 or an inch if you're worried about rubbing with 285 s
 
Anyone have experience with Sixity Auto's spacers? They seem to offer every possible size and configuration (took me a few minutes to realize that we needed a 106.5 mm bore instead of 108 mm) and for about $120.
