    I want to get some 315’s out the back someday and I was wondering if I should put wheel spacers in.

    I noticed 04 Sleeper put ¼ MM Wheel spacers in the rear. Should I do that?

    What are wheel spacers?:shrug:

    What are the benefits of wheel spacers?:shrug:

    Who needs them?:shrug:


    Sorry if its a lot of questions:flag:

    they push your wheels further out of the fenders.. its mostly all looks unless you go crazy fat with your tires.. if you get some get hubcentric style.. i had 2" on my car and it shredded my tires witin a few days ... so lesson learned, dont go to the extreme lol

    If you are getting 315's on 10.5" rims you do not need spacers

    Yes I plan on 315's on 17X10.5 rims in the rear. So you think no.

    Why would 04 sleeper do it for his 315's you think?

    For Looks?:shrug:

    maybe he still has the original IRS bolts... (this causes the tires that wide to rub on the bolt on 17" rims...) just a guess.
