Default Wheel Spacers??

been thinking about buying the doetsch tech lift kit for the 2wd dak, i know the stock wheels i have won't fit so ive been looking at wheel spacers, particuarly a set on ebay (link below) does anyone know if these are good and isn't the dak hubcentric, i dont know if these spacers are if that is what i need.

I'm confused... what kind of lift kit won't let you use your stock wheels? That's definately a new one to me.

sorry completely forgot the link ill put it up
and the lift is for a 2wd so the new control arms that are supplied with the lift wont agree with the backspacing on the stock wheels by like an inch or so, the doetsch tech is essentially the same as the fabtech just now ball joints, but a $500+ difference in price just for ball joints is a little ridiculous.

link for the spacers (do i need hubcentric? and are these hubcentric if i need them

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wheel...3A1|240%3A1318

link to the doetsch tech lift its the top lift, lifts front 3" and rear 2" for a 2002 2wd

i noticed a typo on their website it said stock wheels don't work with one of the upper control arms so i asked them and they confirmed that the stock wheels dont work with the lift im looking at

I believe our wheels are centered on the lugs not the hubs.
