Default Wheel adaptors

If buying a set 4 wheel adaptors do all 4 have to be the same or can I go 1.5 front and 2 rear ? Or is it better to do all the same ?

I can't imagine that it would matter. People run wheels with different offset/backspacing all the time. As long as your not changing the overall diameter of the wheel/tire and using 4wd, you should be good. Just make sure you have proper clearance for all the brake, hub, rotor, etc. for the new rims you mount on the truck.

I don't think it matters at all, I am running 1.5" adapters on all 4 corners but wish I would have done 1.5" front and 2.0" in the rear.
