Spacers

[jaystylez15]

Hey guys,

I currently am running Coopper STT's 315 75/16. this weekend i cranked the torsion bar to level out my truck now the tires in the front still scrape durign close turn. My buddy suggested putting on some spacers, any ideas?

Most people will experience some rubbing with 315's at full lock, myself included. I don't consider it an issue as I seldomly need to turn full lock and when I do it's at very low speeds.

Spacers should be be like a last resort if necessary thing.

If you plan on buy wheels in the future I'd just buy them at the right offset that you won't need spacers mine are a -18 which seems perfect to me so far. It has a nice stance and no rubbing what so ever

I suggest getting the spacers, they made a huge diffrence for my turning radius. Just make sure you get good ones, I believe Summit Racing carries them.

For zero rubbing upfront, you need 36mm (~1.41") spacers. That will make your stance wider (almost 3") and be prepared to get a lot of rocks thrown on each side of your truck. I had the truck body lifted to fit though as the tires were rubbing on the fender flares (not sure if it clears without fender flares)

What are they rubbing on? I've run STTs for 200k miles with no issues. They rub the sway bar at full lock, but nothing on the fenders.
