Wheel Spacer Help
Currently running a ReadyLift 2 1/4" level and 3" rear block and BFG KO2's 285/65/20's but I hate the tucked wheel look. Will I be able to install 1.5" wheel spacers without having any rub issues? My pickup didn't come with the front crash bars which i've read others had issues with.

theres nothing wrong with spacers lol and maybe he likes the wheels he's got
as long as they're quality brand and torqued to spec.
i have a bds 6" lift -12 wheels + a 1.5 inch spacer. and my truck isn't a street queen
to OP , spacers are cheap . if they don't fit, sellem or return them
also with my 1.5inch spacers i needed shorter studs the factory ones were too long - but thats cause my wheels didn't have a hollow gap on the inside between stud holes

You should be fine with 1.5 inch spacers. I had mine on for 10k miles and just rotated the tires and they are all tight as when installed. Just use a little loctite. It's not needed but gives even more piece of mind.
The simple 1.5 inches makes a huge difference in looks.

I have the same level and same tires but it is a a crew cab with the crash bars. I had to use a spreader to move to crash bar up half an inch but had no other rubbing.

What about upper control arms. I feel like if imma do a level and shocks and struts imma just go almost all out!
Are the tuff country ones any good. Obviously they're not as good as icons, camburg or even ready lifts. But are they not even worth getting?
I plan on running a 2" up front a bigger block in the rear or a long AAL and bilstein 5100 shocks and struts some raptor, pro comp or method wheels.
