Most people don't realize it, but spacers also put excess pressure and stress on your stock wheel studs and wheel bearings. Wish GM, Ford, and Dodge would start putting gargantuan wheel studs on the trucks like Land Rover has on their vehicles.
You didn't mention what make of truck you have. Regardless, I'll guaranty that there are forums just like this one where guys discuss every type of wheel/tire combination that'll work on your truck. Do a quick search and you'll have your answer in no time..
2003 F250 crew cab 4x4 w/ 8" lift. Why search other forums when I trust the guys on ODT who know everything about everything?
This is the reason that I have stayed away from spacers. I know nothing of mechanics, but that is just common sense to me. You move the mounting point away from stock and it weakens it.
OK man. Good luck.2003 F250 crew cab 4x4 w/ 8" lift. Why search other forums when I trust the guys on ODT who know everything about everything?
Pro Comps: 38x14.50x16's
Nitto: 37x12.50x16's
Neither of which fill up the fender well like I wish. I can live w/ it since I have no choice. But, I do want to go as tall as possible, with out losing all my turning radius, which is dismal as is...
I had pretty much the same issue. the 37-14.50 mud grapplers hit on full turn. I have 20 inch wheels so my choices were somewhat limted. BFG makes a 37-12.50-20 but the price is out of sight. I ended up with 35 - 12.50 Firestones and although I don't think it looks as good, it steers much better and that god awful noise the Mud grapplers were making is finally gone
