5/16" Wheel Spacers


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a 2003 GMC Sierra K1500 4x4 reg. cab, short box. I have 6-spoke Eagle alloys that I think look great, aside from the perception that the front stance looks narrower than the rear.

 

I have the factory fender flares, and in my opinion, the rear tires line up flush with the rear fender flares. It may be just my perception, but to me, it looks as if the front tires are close to 1/2" or more inside the front fender flares.

 

The question I'm getting to is...can I add 5/16" or 1/2" aluminum wheel spacers to the front wheels without longer studs? Will there be enough thread left to get the lugs on tight? Thanks in advance!

:rolleyes:

i think they will shorten them up to were you will have issue's breaking stud's

spacer's are never a good idea ,in this salty environment the will go away real quick .

Don't like the stance, then I suggest just getting wheels with more back spacing.. Or if you do put spacers on.. Put 14inch wheels and drop it like all the wanna be gangsters in ND do..
