[ArmyMP]

Anyone have a rubicon with stock rims and tires on 2" wheel spacers?

Lots of people use spacers, usually 1.75”. Stick with a name brand like Spidertrax, Synergy, etc.

Wheel spacers or coil spacers? I hope you mean coil spacers. 2" is a LOT for a wheel spacer.

If I had to run spacers it would be spidertrax.

Not 2" but these are 1.25" Spidertrax spacers

On a Rubicon

with stock Rims

But not a JT.

Bora manufacturers a very high quality product. You need to make sure the spacer is wider then the length of your lugs. For Jeeps most run 1.5 inches and have no problems. The longer the spacer the greater the force transferred to other axle/steering components. This will increase wear with potential component failure.

1.5" Spidertrax adapters, is what most use..FYI When one moves the wheels out to far, one then has a scrub radius issue, plus you are adding more stress on the ball joints and Hub Bearings.

Ive been running 2" Wheel Spacers from Quadratec on my Willy`s with stock wheels / tires for ~20k miles. I opted for the 2" because I wouldnt have to trim the lugs at all - I knew these were "Temporary". I think you can run the 1.75" without any trimming of the lugs, been a while since i looked it up.

I have picked out a set of wheels and tires that will be going on in a few months and ill then be removing them as the new wheels will be wider and have different backspacing, itll allow me to get the footprint I want without using spacers.

I havent had any problems with them, and the extra width seems to help make the JT more stable (especially when yours is lifted, Ive got 3.5" in the front and 2" in the rear").
