Does it need wheel spacers for a factory 18" wheel?
Im running 33" tires before my hubcentric spacers could barely get a finger between tire and control arm 33" is max without a spacers!

You don't have to unless you want 35\" tires I drove mine without the spacers for bit was tad stiff pushing the tires out a bit made a nice difference on how the ride felt ...was smoother more like it was before the lift !my 2 cents worth

Here it is after the RC 3"... The shop put .25" spacers on because the kit called for it when using the factory wheels, those 33's fit fine. I don't think it'd even need the spacers. It seems to have plenty of room for 35's.... Think I can fit a set of 35's with or without spacers?

Put your finger in-between the tires edge and top of that upper control arm I barely got a pinkey finger in their !!before spacers and I believe 33" tires may have been 35" it was close!!looks good!! I'll have to take pics of mine I went 295/65/20 man they are big tires but love the look and ride with them!!
