The only con I can think about is they will make you need additional trimming of your wheel liner

It could theoretically cause early outer wheel bearing wear.

Is that common issue? I never used spacers so I have no idea.

I'm not sure in a truck that should have some heavier duty parts. In sports cars, yes they do. A full size truck? Not 100% sure

I've been running two inch spacers all the way around since April and haven't had any problems with them.

I would hope that it wouldn't escalate failure by 90k miles. Kind of like saying that you've been running with scissors since April. Haven't gotten hurt yet... But sooner or later you're gonna get cut. probably sooner than with not running with scissors.

 

I've used spacers in the past as well but when my bearing start to go I won't be surprised.

The spacers are more of a temporary thing for me until I get around to ordering bigger wheels and tires though

I was thinking about getting .25" just for appearance ( hopefully) but not sure that small is even noticeable. Anyone?

With spacers that thin you will still be using the stock lugs. Thats .25" less thread that you will have. You could always put longer lugs on but thats a different story.

Not sure what exactly you're going for, but this is how much an 18x9 wheel with 2" spacers will stick out.

What's the offset? 2" spacer on a +26 and on a -15 are going to way different
