Ok so I don't know exactly how to word this but I'm low on funds because I drive a jeep but I wanna get the lift and tires on I have stock 16 inch sport wheels which will rub with 35x12.5 so I need the cheapest wheel option with out using spacers I looked around but I'm lookin for input from you guys or maybe someone close to my area would have a cheap set of 5 there willing to part with
 
Aren't good spacers relatively expensive ?? I mean I thought about spacers I always just thought they were a weak point if that makes sense my wheels are 6.25 so I would need 1.75 spacers I believe and I only found sets of like 2 for 100 dollars but I didn't look to hard either maybe you can enlighten me on spacers and maybe I'll go that route any advice is appreciated
 
I purchased my Spider's for $100 used. You can get blems from them for about $180. New they are around $200 for four. There are others out there. Rugged Ridge, Rough Country, Synergy I believe might be a little less.

Eddie's got a write up in Project-JK for install.

Poison spyder what I went with. But $70-$100 for 2 is common. I wouldn't go real cheep if there is a cheap one out there for its your drive train. But they pay for themselves. It seams that my handling is better for having the wider wheel space on.
 
Yea and for 350 bucks I can get 5 wheels from rough country just another reason I can't justify the spacers plus my wheels are ugly as F**k thanks for the link to the wheels tho I will be buying them ASAP
 
If you don't want to run the stock 16" steel wheels look at my build. I still run 16". They are black rock soft 8's with 4.25 backspacing. I currently run 35's as well with no rubbing

Love your rig!:rock:
 
Rough country sells spacers for $55 a pair, I've been running mine for a couple of years, about 75,000 miles without any major consequences. It will make it much easier to bend your front axle though so you have to be careful especially if you have a Dana 30.
