Wheel Spacers...

I'm running Spidertrax 1 1/4" on my 08 front & back, they look great no vibration. Granted 4th gen Vs 3rd gen. They are about $100 a set plus shipping, $200 for 4 spacers. They are hub and lug centric. I think I got mine with free shipping directly from Spidertrax. That is much cheaper than another set of tires/wheels and might keep you out of the Doghouse.:wink2:

Be aware some of the big national chain tire stores (discount tire ect..) and places like Sam's club, BJ's, Costco ect... will not touch it once you add wheel spacers.
 
FYI for anyone considering rear spacers w/ their 285s on stock (or any 4.5" or so backspaced rims)...

Don't. They will make your rear tires stick out to far and will prevent them from tucking into the wheel wells. Instead, the rear fenders will actually sit on the outer edge of the tires and the body will act as a brake.

If you can't get the info online, you can take a wheel off and measure from the flange (where it bolts up) to the edge of the rim - on the inside of the rim, not the outside. Try to find something flat and straight to lay across the rim so you can put the measuring tape right up to it. Whatever the distance is, that's your offset (or backspacing). More BS'ing will push the rim toward the hub and less will push it outward. For example, 3" BS will sit 1.5" father out than 4.5" BS will.
