What's the general consensus on wheel spacers?
In the front I get some rubbing on the front coil towers when fully stuffed. In the rear I only have about 5/8" clearance between the tires and shocks. I've already been rubbing them just around the streets. I could gain some more (1/4") clearance if I were to relocate my limiting straps (but that will be a PIA). So I’d like to get a little more breathing room front and rear. Expense is a concern and I would prefer to keep the stock aluminum wheels. With my 255/70-16's I don't have especially wide tires, a narrower/taller tire (235/80-16) is an option but probably not for a while unless I could sell these.
So what do you guy's think? Wheel Spacers...good option, or asking for trouble?
