Re: Bolt on wheel spacers, yay or nay??

I have to say in my opinion your wheels are perfect as far as offset. Any further and your sticking out. Which in my world is a high school automotive styling mistake, (Who else remembers 10" Craggers on a Camaro in 1977) and not to mention it causes the truck to get dirty faster as the tire throws dirt up and the fender isn't there to catch it so it lands on the side of the vehicle.
If you were to still wanting to move the wheel out I have run 3/8-1/2 inch spacers in the past without problems. I made them to be hub centric and to fit the bolt pattern with very little play. In addition I ran longer studs to keep things secure.
