Not sure if this is where I should post a question however I am wondering do you have to cut the studs on a 1 inch or 2 inch spacer on a 3/4 ton Sierra 8 lug? I want to add a spacer to my wheels for a better offset but I really don't want to get involved in cutting the factory studs. Any help would be appreciated and forgive me if this is not posted in the proper section :-)

you are posting in the 1500 series board...you are welcome to ask your question (i don't know the answer) but it might be better served to go to the 2500 series board...

It’s is really going to depend on your wheels. Take off a wheel and see if there are slots or pockets on back of wheel. With my wheels I could have easily used a 1” without cutting studs since they have pockets.

Thanks for the input. There are so many categories on Tapatalk it's amazing. Anyway, I did find an answer to my wheel spacers and cutting the studs I ended up going with Bora 2in spacers and I will not need to cut studs at that point.

Now to find the correct posting area for other topics LOL thanks for your input

i have found the search function is hit and miss (but way better on this new platform than it was)...but alot of times you can just skim all the threads and sometimes find what you are looking for...more times than not, you'll already have someone that has delt with the same question...good luck, and as always post some pics!

Thanks for the input, I will get the hang of this platform sooner than later :-) picture as requested :-)

Kevin77rogers set up with the 285/65/18 and 1.5inch spacers...is there any rubbing and if so how bad?

kevin77rogers · August 17, 2019

There was only a little bit at full lock in reverse. I used a hammer to tap in driver side at the black piece and it was fixed. Keep in mind different tires are sized different of course. I now have the same size 285/65/18 in Nitto ridge grabber and they are a lot smaller. Those coopers are big.

I have the Cooper STT Pro 285/65/18 with a 2inch Zone suspension kit, and stock wheels 2018 Z71...was on the fence about the 1.25 or 1.5in wheel spacer. I know my wheel has pockets, but many are saying trim required with the 1.25 inch...

Has anyone been able to verify if 285/70/18 will fit with a 2” level? I currently have 275/70/18 toyo open country mt (33.6 x 11) with no rub. It’s time for a new set and I really want to try 285/70/18 nitto ridge grapplers but have yet to find anyone with this setup to verify if they’ll rub or not. Image is with 275/70/18 toyo open country mt

Mine above are 285/65/18. No level and no rubbing. I had to zip tie the fender liner to the frame. If I remember correctly theres 1/2-1" you gain when you pull it in tight.

Got any pics of how you zip tied the fender liner to the frame? Thinking I may have to do this as well. Just ordered 285/70/18 nitto ridge grapplers. I have a 2” RC level.
