I’ve never been a fan of wheel spacers, but I accepted them as a part of life when I bought my Ranger. I liked the stock wheels enough to keep them a while, then upgraded to Tremor wheels. The wheels I wanted for my truck have been on back order forever in the offset I wanted. (Fuel Trophy 17x8.5 +6 black/silver) on a whim I rechecked inventory at my distributor and boom! In stock! I decided to turn the white letter in for a little darker/cleaner look. Very happy with result. Very F-150 raptor-ish. Anyone want my old Tremor wheels? Lol

Looks great! What tires and suspension do you have on there? I looked through your posts but may have missed it.

Hi Ben,

Very smart to ditch the spacers. They are not for everyone that will not check wheel torque as wheel loosening with spacers is a concern.

Best,
Phil

Yup. I checked every rotation, hub centric faction fab and bora. Still didn’t trust them.
