Does Size Really Matter?

Does Size Really Matter? When it comes to wheel spacers that is...

So in the world of JK's I know the most common spacer is the 1.5" Spidertrax and I know they have there 1.75" spacer as well... and I have seen a couple people running 2" spacers, not sure on company - but would there be any negative effect on the rig if you went with the 1.75" or the 2" spacer versus the 1.5"? will it cause to much strain on anything? more than aftermarket wheel would?

I like the way the 1.5" look with the stock wheels and 35's, but I would like them out just a bit more like the after market wheels seem to be... figured I would ask and see what WAL thought...

I would think it would just put more stress on the unit bearings and rear flanges.

I have been running 1.75" for 5000 miles now. Florida wheeling only. Have had no issues and I like the wider look

But more stress that a -12 offset aftermarket wheel with a 35 on it? That's what I am wondering...
