This is a great thread. I'm thinking about doing the same. So the front is a little wider than the rear stock huh? What made you go 1/1.25 over 1.25/1.5?

No, the rear has about a 1/2 wider track. I’m looking for a stances where the tires are flush with the fender flares on the Rebel. I used a level and measure the distance from tires to the outside of the flares. 1” spacers in the front and 1.25” in the rear should be pretty close...

I might do 1.25 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. I'd like it even or just slightly beyond the flares. I really need a level too.

If you guys have Rebels with stock tires look close at my previous post with pics you will see the sidewall bulge pokes a small amount However the tread is well inside the flares.

Yeah, it’s such an easy mod, but tough decision. I ordered 1” up front and 1.25” in the rear, but debated it for weeks... ha. I’ll post pics after the install.

I planned to add a 2” leveling kit too. I had the Daystar Kit on my 4th Gen and never had any issues, but will probably go with a ReadyLift kit w/UCA time...

What size did you go with (sorry if I missed it)? And do you have a picture of straight down the side?

Can anyone confirm that we do not have to cut the factory studs on the 22" Limited wheels going with 1" Bora spacers?

^^^ I know that the Laramie, Sport, and Rebel have the wheel indentations, and thought I read that the Limited did as well, but not 100% certain. Hopefully someone will chime in...

Really tempted to do this to my Rebel. I recently put on a set of black wheels from the blackout package edition. Having them a little bit wider will make it look really good. And then the front level kit....

Have to go back and reread real closely to see exactly what size I need to get. Looks like one and a half front and two in the rear

Bora 1.5” front 2” rear no stud modification rear tire Tread inside wheel well with tire bulge giving slight poke. This gets rear slightly wider than front as compared to factory front wider than rear.

Just and update... I ordered the Bora spacers on June 28th and haven’t heard anything yet, so I inquired. Here’s the cut-and pasted response in case others are waiting:

Sorry, We are running behind. 15 business days is Our standard build time. That’s why we mention we are running behind and cannot guarantee build times at this time.

Most parts are running behind by about 2 weeks.

I apologize for the delay.
Thank you
