Hello, ive been trying to find a half an inch wheel spacer for my ranger since with my new tires I'm rubbing so slightly on my upper control arms at full compression. But I cant find any 0.5" spacers from reputable companies.

Man, ironically I was considering topping off my 1" level with a 0.5" but never got around to it. Just didn't seem necessary. I think this was the one I was looking at. It isn't a technical part, either it fits or it doesn't. Traxda might be able to help too even if it isn't listed on the site. Give them a call, they are very helpful people there.

Anyway, here is one link

I think he is looking for wheel spacers not suspension/lift spacers.

I think the reason no one reputable makes them is because they're not a great idea at that size as from what i've seen in the past that size tends to require you to install longer wheel studs... The 1" or more spacers have their own studs installed and just bolt on.

The reason there would not be a 0.5" spacer from a reputable manufacturer is likely because it would create too many issues. To do it right, longer studs may need to be installed. It would have to be hub centric to the hub, then also create its own lip for the wheel to sit on. There just isn't enough room for that.

Maybe give 1" a shot? I personally run a 1" wheel spacer on my Tremor with stock wheels. This will vary a ton depending on the wheel setup but I found it to be subtle enough but perfect for my taste. I got mine from Stage3.

Oh man you are totally right! My bad.
