Been looking for someone to review this exact setup for so long. Thank you much!

@@WesleyAllenNC I know it's only been like 6 weeks, but have you given anymore thought to a leveling kit to get a little more space between the wheel well and tire?

[@sammyfb488]

@@WesleyAllenNC understood. Since throwing the spacers on, have you had any rubbing?

@@WesleyAllenNC awesome thank you!

[@probegt75]

My '20 trd offroad came with 265/70/16 tires. Your video cleared up if I would rub or not.

[@Ryux4x4]

Thanks for all the info I was debating whether to go 1.25 or 1.5 spacers. Seeing the 1.25 on your truck allows me to get a better idea of what I want. I think I will go with the 1.5. Spacers.

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Yeah you’ll like the 1.5’s I bet. Mine are ok, but wind up a bit too subtle over time..

[@Tha_Monsta88]

@@WesleyAllenNC Are 1.5 more "risky per say for the vehicle overall, there's another channel that says you typically do not want to go past 1.25 on spacers. the guy talks a lot in the video but here's the link. what's your opinion?

@NcScratchOffMembersForum I'm not going to be doing anything crazy with my truck. 2019 4c Tacoma. I just got ko/2 all terrain tires and would like to get Rid of that stock look since I have nice (not stock tires) it's a daily driver down in Florida. No off road.

This is one of the quickest ways to set a Tacoma apart from the others if you don't want to drop a ton of cash on new wheels AND tires..

[@aMotoheadsGarage]

Thanks for this video. I have the same tires and I'm ordering 1.25" spacers now. Looks awesome!

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Hey thanks, yeah I’m still liking the look 2 years later

[@yooper9062]

@@WesleyAllenNC Is the blue wheel spacer very noticeable? Or can you really only see it when the wheel is turned?

[@goldblueberries326]

I installed these and the wheels fill the wheel whale great.... looks great

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Hey Good deal, thanks for the comment

[@jerrywillis5585]

Before installing the spacers, make sure the brakes are in like new condition.

[@ExploreAnywhere]

My rotor rotates with the spacer 😂 my front wheels are already off and the spacer is just needing to get torqued but the rotor spins anyway. Hand brake and Park is engaged

[@WesleyAllenNC]

With both tires already off the ground you’ll likely need to have someone hold the brake pedal for you during the final torque..

[@ExploreAnywhere]

@@WesleyAllenNC i ended up settling the torque wrench between the lug studs and it seemed to work

[@joejozwiak6169]

@@WesleyAllenNC do one side at a time so one wheel is on the ground or yes, have a person in the truck holding the brake

[@Mike-42069]

Got a quick question. I had a set of Gorilla spacers installed and the thread engagement is maybe 3 threads. I removed them being that can't be safe. How do the spidertrax differ so that the nut thread engagement is all the way like in the video? Thanks.

[@guyanesegreentamarind9833]

Did you have to get a alinement after installation?

[@WesleyAllenNC]

No, not for wheel spacers. But if you lift your truck in any way, for sure

[@billybob1969er]

I was thinking of getting these wheel spacers for my tacoma. Have you had any issues with them like wheel bearings or ball joints wearing out prematurely? That seem to be the main argument all over the internet about wheel spacers

[@WesleyAllenNC]

I haven’t, but I actually just sold this truck about a month ago. It only had around 30,000 miles.

[@julianrivera20]

I ordered some cheap amazon spacers and my studs seem too short for the new nuts 😠

[@jimcatanzaro7808]

That’s insane I have a 2019 sport and came factory with 265/70/17 bf goods I even put a 2.5 inch billstien lift and have plenty of room and have the factory mud flaps

About to install my 2inch spacer on my 2019 trd sport on stock wheels tires and suspension wish me luck because it the first time ever I installed anything on a truck or anything myself

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Good luck! It’s pretty simple as long as you follow the instructions.. there’s a chance you might rub your front tires at full turn.. let us know!

@@WesleyAllenNC thank you

[@arimadx]

I really dont see why they dont just sell them in a complete set of 4. I almost ordered some and then realized i was gonna have to double that price. Kinda crappy that they do that. Who would ever beed just 2?

[@amanaseboy]

Nice video bro.

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Hey thanks!

[@AngelAguilar-dg2gp]

Is there still any minor rubbing with the leveling kit you have now?

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Not at all. It’s barely rubbed before

[@ghostmorrill]

What leveling kit are you using?

[@kalaniware2853]

Nice. But, how do I know which ones to get that will get me the offset I’m looking for? I’m running 285/75/16 and at +4. I wanna get to a -25 offset

[@elmanguilimotan9906]

I’d like to ask what is the max weight capacity of your Floor Jack and Jack Stand?

[@highplainsdrifter9849]

Did you have to get wheel alignment after installing the spacers?

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Yes for sure. I made sure to have an appointment scheduled prior to installing these spacers. They will wear tote front tires out quickly without an alignment

[@Yingsuza_official]

Is there a noticeable change to the truck drivability and suspension roughness or something thing similar? I have the same truck stock wheel and tires just want a bit of a stance to the oem ones. This might be my solution but I don't want to sacrifice ride and comfort over looks. Just curious. By the way awsome truck!.. 😎

[@WesleyAllenNC]

Thanks for the comment. No, I haven't experienced any trade-off in ride quality after installation. I'm still running my Spidertrax without issue. I'm about to go in for my 5,000 mile vehicle check in the next couple of weeks, I'm curious to see what they say about them being installed if anything.. Also there's a link in the description for them if your looking to purchase a set. (They come in a box of 2.)

@@WesleyAllenNC What they tell you when you went in for your service??

I have a 2020 tacoma sport (2wd) it has rear drum brakes, would these spacers/adapter work for them? Do you have rear drum brakes as well?

Yes. I have drum brakes and they work perfectly. They bolt onto the wheel studs that your wheel lug nuts attach to..

[@RealEstateTorontoPhotography]

Great video ! Thank you for your hard work ! Just installed the same spacer on my Tacoma 2019, thinking of 1.5" or 2" what do you think ?

1.5-2” Lift or a different spacer?

What did you use to avoid the front tires from spinning when you're tighten the wheels adapter ?

If I recall, I had someone hold the brake pedal while i torqued them down.

[@monomite6]

I took a board long enough to wedge the brake pedal.

[@Alexandros94-TBA]

Did you end up trimming the fender?

[@WesleyAllenNC]

No I just ran it like it was. Later I added a 2” front spacer and a 1” rear. I have a video showing those as well

[@genesisgadingan7107]

Is your tire rubbing with that spacer? Im planing to get same size of tire like yours .

[@1718HULK]

I put on 275 70 R 17 on my 22 Tacoma. The tire when I make tight turns rubs against the control arm. I was told if I put a one inch space around. It will rub against the wheel. Well, what can I do? Thank you.

It’s hard for me to say for sure. Are you already rubbing the fenders at all? It seems like it would work but you may be better off asking a larger audience in a Facebook group. There’s a few 3rd generation Tacoma groups out there

Nice truck homie, but does it have a problem now on your wheel bearings?

?? Why 90 the torq is 83 , why nobody put 1.5 spacers.

@ecruz2987 if you watch video again. I think he said 90 is for the Spacer torque. Yes your Wheel torque might be 83. Just double check your torque so it doesn't pass you while your driving down the road 😂
