Can't put stock wheels back on due to lift spindles

Well that didn't work. Not enough offset to clear.

Can't put stock wheels back on due to lift spindles

Postby Chasmanian [OP] » Jun 12 2011, 3:06am

Was going to throw the stocks back on for the trip out to Oklahoma to save a little on gas and wear on the off road tires since they are about due to be replaced. With the lift and the new spindles the stock wheel don't have enough off set to clear. Oh well, at least I have a god set of rubber for for my 99 Silverado.

Too late now but a set of wheels spacers may do the trick...

Ya I thought about the spacers but I am going to just head out with the big rubber on her. I don't think it will make huge difference, just thought it would be a smoother and much more quiet ride as my Nittos are getting really loud as they are wearing down more.

I was planning on new wheels and tires when I get out there anyway.

Maybe turn to the dark side.......?
