Different Wheel Spacer size

[HanoverFist]

Fairly new to all things Ram, so please forgive me for my ignorance. I have a 2021 Longhorn Limited and am considering installing 1.5" wheel spacers. I read a thread on one of the forums that said the front axle is 1/4" longer than the rear and when installing spacers you should make sure the spacers for your rear are 1/4" thicker than the front spacers to balance this out. Is this the correct action to take, or just buy all 4 spacers the same thickness? Again, sorry for my ignorance.....just trying to determine what is proper to install. Thanks in advance for your input.

Really personal preference. That info is correct though. 1.5" will definitely poke those outside your fender well. Assuming that's what you are looking for ?

If you want them to look even, you want the rear spacers to be 1/4 thicker

You won't notice the difference. I have 1.5" all the way around and the fitment appears perfect.

I can clearly see the 1/4" difference.

There is a noticeable difference.

There is a noticeable difference.

1/4" spanning the distance of 12' is not noticeable to 95% of the people. If it was so noticeable, the factory wouldn't have done it themselves.

Track width has nothing to do with aesthetics. The factory does a lot of things that aren't aesthetically pleasing for the sake of safety/ function (aka factory rake).

The factory does it for fuel economy. They don't care about what it looks like.
