What did you do to your Ram today???

2" per the second picture.

Thank you, I skipped right over that detail.

Interested in seeing them on the truck!

Most manufacturers will void the factory warranty on your tires if spacers are used.

Looks awesome. I just ordered some that I have to get color matched. Where did you get yours and how was the instillation process?

Now I have pretty bad rubbing on the splash guards. How have others addressed this?

Spacers made it in, will install later and take some pics. Looks to be well made.

are there any issues worth worrying about when it comes to running these? obviously they do effect things i.e. longevity of wear items (just like a lift, level, extreme negative offset wheels etc), but i'm more concerned about immediate issues/safety of driving with them on? I always hear bad things about them but i never see anything that seems to really make a valid argument as to why you absolutely shouldn't use them

I have been looking at them too since I am interested in going with larger tires. Every tire shop told me that if I install spacers that my tires will not be warranted. They said spacers are BAD news but I'm sure there are several folks on the forum that run them without issue...yet

No different than changing to a negative offset wheel.

 

[Moparian]

As long as you get propper fitting hub centric spacers that have their own studs then you really shouldnt have any issues other than perhaps some accelerated wear on the wheel hubs but it wouldnt be any different than running negative offset wheels. The issue is when you run the generic spacer plates and dont extend the studs.

I ran spacers on my previous truck for about 180k miles without any issues whatsoever. I finally replaced my hubs at 175k mi just because it was a typical issue with that truck and I hadn’t done so yet. I never saw the “accelerated wear” people talk about over that course of time, and I’d happily run them again.... in fact, I plan to as soon as Bora delivers my order.

What did I do to my Ram today? Waved at it as my wife drove off to work in it...

I experienced a rub on my splash guards as well. I removed them and now I have full lock with no rub.

I don't have splash guards on my Limited. Maybe you can trim the front splach guards.

 

[Dookie]

I'll try that before I remove them completely, but I will have to apply some heat to the front inner fenders and manipulate them towards the front of the truck as well for clearance there. I will report back with how I handle it. Thanks for the replies gents!

i got mine off a memeber here that was selling them, i had to buy the shorter spats and i also ordered the welting that someone mentioned, i ended up using the welting as using the double sided tape didnt hold up well, it had a little gap. and my ocd didnt like it.

Got my custom badge from Bold City Designs installed today.

Just messing around, do I plastidip? Do I paint? I like the carbon fiber look so I applied some film I had hanging around.
