Wheel Spacers
I have an 82 F-100 with a 4" body lift. Have upgraded the engine, tranny and a few other items. Have been running 31" tires and what to upgrade to 33". The 31s rub on the radius arms now and I can only imagine what the 33's will do. Has anyone had luck with wheel spacers and if so where did you get them and how big did you get?

Spacers and adapters are the best way to see how fast our tires can pass you as you skid to a stop. The only usable ones are steel and steel rims. and they are not for daily drivers.
Seen too many come off and that is why ya don't see many on the market nowdays.

on my cherokee I run 1.25" aluminum e-bay spacers. They've been on there for about 30K, and I used to wheel with 33's pretty frequently. I torqued them down about once a week for the first 2 months, and since then they've been no issue
