Why have different sizes between front and back? What are the advantages?

Looking good. If I got some I'd just do 1.25 all around. I don't want to have fit problems so I'm holding off for now. I wanted to have them for the B2SR but that would suck with a bad fit.

Idk chief. Its just experimentation at this point. Overall point is for a wider stance. It was explained to me that when we are going over obstacles (since we have IFS) the front wheels move down and inward. That birdie also told me if i run the 1.25's it should compensate for that. So now that i have them mounted in the front, my baby sits w her front legs more wide open than her back legs. Not sayin she's a whore... Im just sayin. So im fig'n i should swap so maybe it evens out but keeps the larger width in the rear. Which is how i like all my girls ;)

holy sh!te tons of conflicting opinions on these spacers.

betw these three I think im goin w ruggedrocks

http://www.4wheelparts.com/Wheels/Wheel ... SPIWHS-005

https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/billet- ... -5314.html

https://ruggedrocksoffroad.com/nissan-x ... 35940.html

question though. I called up spidertrax and asked if these would fit a nissan they said it would if its a 6 on 5.5 but they do not recommend it. howevre rugged rocks has the same item, just dif thread on the spacer studs. if spacers are mad for specific bolt patterns, does the thread pitch make a dif as to what vehicle it can be mounted on? or is it just preference as to if you wana use 2 dif sockets to remove your wheels. Also, i was told to torque the spacer to wheel studs at factory rating, however when mounting the wheel onto the spacer to go by the spacer stud torque spec. So if nissans ftlbs is 90 and the spacers is 75ftlbs would that lead to any problems?

Question - do your current aftermarket rims not stick out far enough for you? From the various opinions I've heard from others, spacers are a weak link. If you want your tires to stick out, then get a rim that will have less backspacing.
