As for the driving around town is only good. This is very subjective from one person to the next and the same when your talking about spacers in general. Many guys will tell you don't go offroad with wheel spacers period.
I would much rather have 1/4" spacers than 1.5" spacers. The wider the spacer the more pressure you put on the hub bearings kinda like you were saying about the lugs, however; the wider spacers will put more stress on the hubs than the thinner spacers would on the lugs....if you follow?
Just some food for thought.
ur right, but as for the ones that dont have lugs(1/4), i think put more pressure than the the wider ones.cause the wider ones bolt on to the strong point of ur lugs and then have a set of lugs for your wheels........as for the 1/4 ones, you dont have that extra set or lugs, which makes u bolt the rim and tire on the outer part of your lugs which with enough pressure can bend them. see where im comming from?

and i see what u mean about the hub centric, my bad bro

I thought about going with spacers as well so that I could run my 35s on some 06-08 stockers, but after speaking with Hammer about it a bit, I decided I would rather not risk it.
