    I would like to know the best wheel spacers to get in the long run to help better with alignment and wheel balanced. I will be running 33/12.50-r17 nitto mud grapplers on a 2.5 inch leveling kit. Kinda not sure if I should get 1”,1.5”.2” wheel spacers also. And if anyone has ran 33-12.50 on just a leveling kit I would also like to know how that went!! Thanks if anyone can help

    The best wheel spacers are rims with the off set desired

    I’ve had BORA 1” spacers on for 35K miles with no issues.

    265/75/R16 on stock TRD OR wheels. Cooper AT3 LT in C load. I just installed the BORA spacers with blue Permatex torqued to spec. Drove the long way around the block, pulled wheels and checked torque on spacers, and haven’t had issues since. I rotate my tires every 5K and check the spacer torque and nothing has moved. I marked each spacer lug and bolt head with a “X” so I can easily see if anything moves. If one does move, I’ll remove the lug nut, reapply threadlock and torque, but that hasn’t happened. No issues, would buy again. Ordered from Wheeler’s Offroad and had them in 2 days.
