Stack wheel spacers

My 17x9.5 with 275 tires rub in the front. I think my wheels are 56mm which means I probably need a 2.25 spacer in the front. I have 2" bolt on spacers in the front and spacer has its own studs.

The question is would it be ok to run 1/4" slip on spacer on top of a 2" bolt on spacer?

Re: Stack wheel spacers

I don't suggest you do that. Just buy a set of 2.25" spacers.

Re: Stack wheel spacers

As cheap as spacers are now, I wouldn't. Put a 1/4 spacer on to check fit? sure. Drive with, No.
