i want to get a set of spacers for the front and rear of my 90 tracker. what i have now is 235/75/15 bfg all terrains and 15x8 rims. no body lift yet no suspension lift either. what i want to know should i go with the 1.5 inch or the 2 inch spacer.
-
I have 1.5" spacers and they seem to be enough. If you go 2" I'd be afraid of bearing wear due to the extra stress at the wheels. If you need a coil spacer lift, I can help.
-
what do you have and how much.
-
i would think the 1.5 spacers should be fine for wut you need , an if you lookin at the coil spacers from jeff i bought a set lil while ago and they're awesome ! cant go wrong for the price
-
Ya defiantly go with the 1.5" wheel spacers, a little less stress on the poor ol wheel bearings.

ok i will go with the 1.5 wheel spacers thank you all for your help. also jeff could i get a price on the spring spacers.
-
The full set of 2-1.5" coil 2-1.5" strut and 2-2" coil spacers are $120 total shipped to the US or $125 to Canada. Most guys use 1.5" in the front and 2" rear.

Jeff, what do you make the strut spacers out of? -If you're making them out of the same material as the spacers, how have you found they hold up?
-
i will get back with you on those coil spacers. I just ordered my 1.5 inch wheel spacers i got all 4 for 129.99. Also i forgot to ask with these spacers are my tires going to rub more when i am at full left or full right turn. Right now my tires only rub when i am backing out.
-
Yes they will rub more. The tires are pushed farther out and thus do not "tuck" into the fender like the stock ones will. Just trim the fenders and put on a lift.
Uncivilized, The strut spacers are the same material. I've ran them for 2+ years on my 4dr. Sport with NO problems. This plastic is some strong stuff guys.
-
I recommend fender trimming before lifting. Lower CG, less $$$. Done right (search) trimming looks stock & often times cleaner with big tires.
-
I agree with Jeremiah. If you want to run bigger tires than what you already have like 31"+, you will need the lift.
-
right now i am running 235/75/15 on 15x8 ford f150 rims. the tires are about 50% worn. they are bfg all terrains. do think they will rub more with the spacers.

With the wheels just short of lock how close are you to rubbing now?
-
i have about a quarter of a inch. right now they do not rub going forward, but do at lock bakcing up
-
Then your going to rub quite a bit with the wheel spacers. You might be able to trim the back side of your fender a bit to make them work, but lifting it is going to be your easiest option.
