I WAS LOOKING ON EBAY AND SAW THAT THERE ARE 2 SELLERS THAT SELL WHEEL SPACERS...

1- Datin Fabrication 4x4 and off road
&
2- Just Differentials

BOTH SELLERS DO NOT NAME A BRAND FOR THESE SPACERS
MY QUESTION IS HAS ANYONE HERE USED OR BOUGHT THESE SPACERS, AND IF SO WHAT WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE (GOOD/BAD/COMMENTS)...

THANKS...

Never heard of them. Get some spidertrax wheel spacers if you really want them. everyone here has them and I haven't heard any complaints. Mine are great too.
 
i haven't noticed any handling changes. i'm sure it helps a little since the stance is wider. i did it cause it looks better. do a search on wheel spacers or spidertrax. you'll find everything about them

I dont run spacers (never would just me). I do agree with the above statement , thats one thing you DONT want to skimp on.
 
i really like my spidertrax!
I also REALLY like my stock wheels, more so than any aftermarket so for me its a perfect option. No need for worry. Either go to a mechanic you trust or have the proper tools and trust your own work.

i think it's should be a pretty straighforward install...

tools needed: jack, jackstand, torque wrench, loctite

BTW OFF TOPIC...
so you have the 17" SE (sport edition) wheels... yes those wheels and the FJ wheels are some of TOYOTA's finest creations!!!
i wonder if the SE wheels have changed any from 03-05 and 06-09... just out of curiousity...

I think the limited wheels where the ones that changed...to the slick 18"s which i also like alot, but AFAIK the sports stayed the same?
 
No change in rim design on SR5 and Sport Edition for the 4th gen. Only the Limited got different rims starting in 2006. Urban Runners have the same rim design as 2006+ Limiteds.
 
thanks for all the info... does anyone if 4x4 group buy is a legit company... i ordered my spidertrax and since then no replies to any emails...

I checked out their site, and seem to be a credible company. The only odd thing I noticed is that they are located in Poland. It may just be a case of poor customer service, or it may take them 24-48 hours to reply, as do many companies that have high volumes of customer needs.

let's keep our fingers crossed that it is legitimate... that's $200 down the drain...

Eek, $200? Why did you go with a questionable company, if you could have gotten them from Jason Burtman for $195 for all 4 spacers? I thought you got a killer deal on them or something.
