    I have a 2wd 2006 Tacoma PreRunner and I want a wider stance on my truck. Does anyone know of any good 1" wheel spacers that are reliable and aren't to pricey?

    Thanks,
    John

    I would reccomend not to get cheap on spacers.....spidertrax sells a very nice set of 1.25" spacers for about $200 bcks for all 4 wheels.

    some can strip your bolts and the holes in the spacers can get bigger and then you can have serious problems

    There is no substitute for quality wheel spacers ....... spend the money for quality spacers or spend the money later to make repairs.

    I see what your saying...... I would get the 4wd ones.

    If youre putting these spacers on your OEM wheels then go for the Hub centric

    All aftermarket wheels are Lug centric

    So for aftermarket wheels you want the early model spacers?

    I have a set of 20" Diamo Wheels with 295/45/20 avengers wrapped around it, should i still get the hub centric? What is the difference between the Hub Centric and the Lug centric?

    Still, I'm not sure which one to get, hub centric or lug centric. I run 20" Chrome Diamo wheels and I'm new to all of this.
    Which would be the best for me to get? Hub Centric or Lug Centric?

    Thanks again,
    John

    P.S. I have no clue what I'm doing :)
