Has anyone seen these wheel spacers?? and could they fit on a 95 ranger 4x4?

4byRANGER · Jan 1, 2008

they look like they will work but i dunno about the HUB fitment.

cause im tryin to get the stance of the truck wider so that my 33inch nitto grapplers dont rub on my radius arms

i belive the problem is the rims tho
i have pro comp 16x 8 wheels with a 4.25" B.S.

i need a a wheel that sticks out more!

any help will be greatly appreciated!!

oops heres the wheel spacer i was talking about!

at the shop where i work, we have aluminum plate spacers in 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, and 3/4 inch thicknesses designed to bring the rim out so it didn't rub on the caliper and bracketry. those look to be 1"+, and they look more like wheel adapters. Also if you plan on doing some serious off roading id be careful as they are only aluminum.

are the spacers im talking about they go over the stock wheel studs.
i believe they are 5$ a piece. It only looks like you need to space a little bit.

you can get spacers like that from parts stores, i dont know what they run though. looks like your radius arms still have good paint on them, are they original or replacements?

i went to that website and couldnt find those spacers..
it looks like i need the 1/2's

hmm ill have to check my local auto parts store for those spacer..

but should i also consider selling these rims for new ones or if anyone wants to possibly trade for different ones??

do you know what stores could possible have them??

and those are the stockers believe it or not
the paint is good until you get to the back mount.. its startin to chip away

the store that i know fur sure is murrays but CSK bought them so if you dont have a murrays store, any CSK store may have them. it seems like autozone and other places like that would have them too. just make sure you have enough lug left if you are getting 1/2" thick spacers. i think they are usually more like 1/4"

its strange to see paint on these radius arms, mine are 20 years old so any paint is long gone...

the jeep spacers should work, may have to take them to a machinest to have the enter bored out though

cool well my brother works at a kragens over here in california so hopefully he can find them..

but then again im running into the problem of these rims i have really dont seem like they were ment for the truck.. once i get to the end of my turning radius(makin really!!! tight turns) they rub like crazy i mean sometimes the truck wont even move, all i hear is this ugly chug chug chug noize as the tires side knobs wear on the radius arm

james99 · Jan 1, 2008

did you get a widder tire that could be the reson they rub not the rim chug chug chug noise that you hear wheel spacers will fix that

c_note · Jan 1, 2008

dude, dont get the spacers! those are the one that people confuse adapter for and are the one that are dangerous. get the wheel adapters like the ones u posted made by Spidertrax. they are very strong and dont stress the lug bolts like the spacers do. i have a set on my ranger and have never had any problems. i used to run 35s with them on and never had problems. plus it looks like you need atleast 1.250" of spacing anyway.

yeah i ahve 33inch nitto grapplers..
they are pretty wide and the side lugs stick out 1 1/2 inches
the lugs are whats actually rubbing on the radius arms

so now my question is what would be the best spacers to go with?
nothing wayy too expensive but somehting that will work

Has anyone seen these wheel spacers?? and could they fit on a 95 ranger 4x4?
