Wheel Spacer Question.

Hello guys. Looking at purchasing some 2" wheel spacers to make a little more clearance for the 315/75R16 tires I bought for my 2004 F-250. I will be running the stock OEM wheels. Pretty sure I need hub centric spacers. I found these on ebay...

Will these work with my stock wheels? It comes with 2 that have a "lip" and 2 that do not. Are these the proper ones to get? If so, does the pair with the lip go on the front or back? Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I ran 315's on the stock wheels of my 2000 for many years with just a leveling kit & didn't need spacers. Just required minor trimming of the bottom of the plastic fenderwells by the cab.

Hmm I guess they're thinking the lip won't clear the 10.5 axleshaft flange, and could be right

Thanks for the reply guys. Decided to go the safer route and just get a leveling kit for the front. Hearing too many horror stories about spacers. Thanks!
