1.25" Wheel Spacers

[zieglerj-pdm-specialist]

That huge space is the wheel adapter. 1.25 inch. They bolt to the stock bolt pattern to extend the bolts to push the wheel farther out. I got them to fit the fifteen inch wheels, the black ones. I got fed up with them cause they were too close to the caliper for my comfort. So I took the wheels off. So I still have the adapters on with the stock wheels. These adapters install on top of the rotors. So to get new rotors the adapters come off.

The truck with the stock tires and wheels with the adapter gives it a slightly bigger stance compared to no adapter at all. I like the way it looks. She pulls to the left a little but My tires are worn and something causes it to wobble when the brakes are applied around 35+ MPH and it wobbles around 70. Not serious wobble but enough to annoy the hell out of me. Still looking into it. Been to hot to work outside. I hope that helps clear things up I have never been good at explaining things.

Correction when I say stock tires I have 265/70/R16 BF GoodRich All-Terrains on there.

It wobbles at those speeds because that is the natural frequency of the vehicle 35 and 35 x 2 so if you would add weight or remove weight it would change the natural frequency and eliminate the shimmy. I'm a vibration analyst and a Production plant so vibration is my specialty.

I had the spacers removed, I removed the back and the dealer had to remove the front as they were on there and I couldn't keep the front brakes clamped (I don't have an impact gun). Found out it also needs new inner tie-rods which is where some of the wobble was coming from recently. Honestly I'm happy they are gone, live and learn right?
