Thanks where did you order them and how long did it take ?
Not sure of the timing currently but if I recalled correctly mine took about 3 weeks a year ago

I’m thinking about 3/4” front and rear or possibly 1” front and rear. Do you have any pics to help me? Also did you have cut studs? I have stock 2019 Big Horn wheels.
I never ran spacer’s, any maintenance required or worries I should think about?

I didn't have to cut the studs on my application. Others have.
I bought a set of Rebel take-offs and they have pockets that are 1" deep. No cutting necessary with almost 1/4" to spare with the 3/4" spacers.
I just measured the pocket in my OEM Bighorn NE wheels and they are also 1" deep. I could fit those with no cutting too.

There really isn't any maintenance other than checking the torque after some miles. Always use a torque wrench and never an impact gun!
The truck feels the same as it did before the spacers, real nice and smooth.

Thank you cskindt.
I heard some have to cut studs and some don’t. Hoping to not have to cut them. I’ll have to pull a wheel and measure.
Only decision is 3/4” or 1”. I don’t have factory flares so maybe 3/4” will give a good stance.

Stagger the sizes. The front is 1/4 wider than the rear. So do 3/4 front and 1" rear to get them both at the same track width.

How much poke are you looking for.
I only wanted to make the tire stand proud of the fender just a little.
I went 3/4" front and 1" rear to even the wheel track. In stock form, the front is about 0.5" wider.

Looks like @HSKR R/T beat me to it.

Definitely Bora!!
Staggered sounds like it makes sense. Don’t want a crazy poke, just enough to know it’s not stock and have a good stance.
My biggest issue holding me back is cutting the studs….really don’t want to do that.

Pictures. @Black19 more pics
I don't have good before pics for comparison so just subtract 3/4" front and 1" rear in your mind.

This is the front with the 3/4" spacer.

My Rebel and BH NE wheels have the same pocket depth.

It's not that big of a deal to cut the. Especially if you have power tools. A sawzall with a metal blade. And a grinder or file to smooth off the sharp edges
