Help with wheel spacers
im getting some rubbin on my 32s and decided to get some wheel spacers. I did a search on the forum and found a thread from lupinsea about some Spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers.
i check them out and they are pricey but look well made (a little over $100 for 2).

can anyone recommend a good brand that is a little less dough? thanks guys

There are these: Weird Harold's but based on the look of these versus the Spidertrax - I do not believe these are hubcentric but instead are lugcentric.

HTH,
Nikki

your right nikki, the spidertrax are hub centered and seeing as they are just about he same price i may have to go with them.

DAMN!! more money on the jeep.

same price?

Spidertrax are $125/pair (can be found just under $120 from some places)
Weird Harold's are $45.50/each (includes shipping and lugs)

so, $240 for a set vs $180...

I'm running the ones from Weird Harold on my '99...no problems at all...

Check w/ DC4WD.com and see what their prices are. Ever since I've been tipped off with this site I've been really impressed with their customer service and prices. However, I'm not sure they carry the Spidertrax stuff but it's worth a call. Oh, and I got my spacers through Jason at Redrock4x4.com for $119 / pair if any one is intersted.

There's no way the spacers are the same price. The Spidertrax should be more expensive but for me it was worth it. I've run the Spidertrax stuff in the past on a Samurai I used to have (disc brake conversion, t-case disc e-brake, HD t-case arms etc.), their workmanship was top notch. I really wish they'd jump into the TJ market but I think they're happy with the Samurai sector. Their wheel spacers are one of the few things they fabricate for a separate make.

Good luck on the pricing.
