Not for me. I haul and tow more than a bag of groceries. Too much stress on wheel bearings, axles, and drive train. I really can't tell any difference with stock wheels and tires anyway.

Just some food for thought.

I have 1.5" spacers and FX wheels which have recesses areas between the stud holes which allows you not to have to grind the factory studs down. The factory studs stuck pass the spacer very little.

With my 1.5" spacers to make them NOT stick past the spacer it requires very little grinding.

Why did I grind them if my FX wheels don't require me too?!?!

Well the reason is the spare tire has a steel wheel and does NOT have the recessed areas so if you ever need your spare your screwed if you don't grind them flush or below the surface of the spacer.

Im running 2" spacers with factory 20" FX4 wheels and 305/55/20 Mastercraft MXT. I tow a lot, from my 20' gooseneck lowboy with bobcat or tractor to 20' gooseneck stock trailer hauling horses to my 22' fourwinns to the lake. No issues.

Would a 1.25 bora spacer fix the rubbing issues on 295/65/20. The tires rub on the UCA.

It would help with the uca, but it might rub the plastic wheel well cover on the inner side at full lock. A spindle spacer would cure the uca rubbing. I just put a set on and they have been working great.

If it's not for you then why even comment on this thread.

Anything wrong with these? I'll be buying some 35x12.50x18 federals for my stock fx4 18s and just wanna be safe so I don't rub the UCA with the wider tires.

Those are good prices, I can't speak for the quality. I have had the bora spacers for about a year, towed, snow plowed and put around 15k miles. No issues.
