This question has probably been tackled many of times but I didn't see it when I looked. I have a 1994 extended cab 4x4 and I'm thinking about wheel spaces.. What are the pros and cons and do you think I should? Where is a good site to get them?

 

99% of us are gonna say don't do it haha

 

To much stress on the ball joints?

 

The biggest danger of using wheel spacers, IMO, is the risk of breakage with cheap, crappy ones. If you use quality spacers that are both hub and wheel centric, and you don't go crazy with the thickness, there's no issue.

I ran a set of 1" thick spacers/adapters for about a year and a half before I changed axles and never had any problem with ball joints, wheel bearings, or any other parts, even with 33" tires.

(And I still have the spacers, in case you're interested. I'll make you a killer deal.)

 

Well I need them to clear the 2nd gen rim clearance problem.. Does an inch pus it out far enough I was thinking 1.5 inches but what's your deal?

 

I'm not aware of the rim clearance problem. I bought them so I could run aftermarket wheels with a 6x5.5" pattern. They work great for that. I paid over $300 for the set and I would take $100 for them.

Obviously, they won't work with stock wheels, since the wheel side is 6x5.5".

 

I just don't have the money to throw around for rims and spacers sorry.

Do you think these would fit my truck? http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...120&cmd=VIDESC

I'm not very aware of what makes a rim fit beside the really simple like bolt pattern. I have no idea about offset back spacing

 

Is your truck 4x4 or 4x2? And what rims are you wanting to run?

 

It's 4x4 and I'm just trying to find some nice looking 15x7s

 

Spidertrax are the only wheel spacers I'd bother with. Jeep XJ/TJ spacers will fit Dakotas, but for what you'll spend you could just buy steel wheels with the right backspacing you need. I ordered a set of Cragars for my Jeep a couple weeks ago from Summit. Under $250 shipped and they got to me in a day and a half.
