Finally did away with the spacers and went for the real deal. Moto Metal MO985 Breakouts, 20x9 - 0 Offset, 275/55/20 Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain AT.

I now heavily warn against spacers. I used some anti seize, and after 18 months, it took about an hour to try and try and finally get those POS's off. BAD idea. They were about fused to the hubs

Ok, i need some assistance. I acquired a set of 1.5” bora spacers for what i feel is a good price. He went wider and sold this set for $95. The downside is they are for 2015+ trucks. He had them on a 2021 i believe.


my questions are. Should i….

1. Bolt them to my truck with existing nuts from my 1.25” spacers and get lug nuts for the 2015+ studs (m14x1.5)?

or
2. Buy 24 wheel studs in the 2012 version (m14x2), punch them out and reinstall the new studs to match my truck?

i would be selling my 1.25” to offset the cost but if i do option 2, it would allow me to sell the 1.25” spacers with two different studs to fit two different generations.

I had the wrong spacers shipped to me.
I have the 2014 style and my truck is a 2016.
I just picked up lug nuts and used them.

The short lug nuts fit the 2016 and hold the spacers on.
The bigger ones are the 2014 thread and hold my wheels on the spacers.

I do believe that's how I'd do it as well. Less work, less cost, for the same result.
