Wheel Spacers

Not sure where to post this. I am thinking of going with fourth gen wheels. Question is what size spacers will be needed on the front? They have 1 in, 1.25 and 2 inch. Any ideas? The rear is from a fourth gen. Thanks

2" is recomended, thats what I have on the front and I wouldnt go any smaller.

I was thinking that 2 in is correct, but does anyone else run these and if so what size? I looked at the web site but first hand experience is the best...Thanks

if you are running a 4th gen rear.. of course the rear wouldnt need spacers for 4th gen rims.. the front would be 2 in spacers to get correct offset.
