Wheel spacers

[DWSmoot]

Added some Black CK158 wheels today from OE Wheels LLC.

Planning on potentially adding 1.25” spacers or maybe even 1”. Forum consensus I have seen is that 1.5” is the smallest spacer that will work. The stud pockets in the back of these wheels are 3/4” deep. Shop said can run 1.25” spacers easily, and maybe 1” if I don’t mind triming just 1/8” of tip of rounded stud. We shall see!

Pull a wheel and measure the stud. Subtract your 3/4" detent, and that's your minimum spacer without trimming. (a little wiggle room in the detent would be preferred, imo). Curious on your results.

Yea thanks. Did that today at the shop with shop tech and thats where the info came from.

Probably going to go with the 1.25” spacer as I am tryin to get to 0 offset. These wheels are 31 offset. Should put tire 3/4” to 1” outside of top fender...

Revisiting this as I did a little measuring when swapping to the summer wheels last night...

What did you end up doing? My math also showed that I can run 1.25 with no trimming and still almost 1/4" to spare. Also had thoughts of going 1" and just nipping the ends off, not even into the threads. Curious how you're turned out.

It's about the stock studs being too long and hitting the back of the wheel if the spacers aren't thick enough.
