I just installed the Coyote 2" spacers. The paper/instructions that came with them said to torque to 85-95 ft/lbs. However, I know our wheels are supposed to be 130 ft/lbs. I did 95 on the spacers and 130 on the wheels, but honestly, the instructions just said to torque the lugs to the 85-95, so maybe it meant all the lugs, but I took it as meaning the lugs that attach the spacers to the hub. Now that I think about it, it probably would have made more sense for me to do the opposite, and torque spacers to 130 and wheels to 85-95. Anyways, should I just go ahead and torque everything to 130?
I know the instructions on my Bora Wheel Spacers said 130 for everything. I would call them and confirm.

I sent them an email. If anything it would at least be opposite what I did, if not 130 all around. Cause I imagine no matter what the factory studs need to be torqued at 130. Now for the spacer studs, thats a different story, that may very well need to be to their recommended specs. Ill see what they say.

I thought I would share what I did with wheel spacers. I originally bought and installed the Bora wheel spacers that were 1" in the front and 1.25" in the rear. I posted a pic in this forum. After living with it for a few weeks I decided to go with .75" front and moved the 1" spacers to the rear. I measured the wheel pockets on my 2020 rebel wheels and the calculations showed that I could go with .75" spacers without any grinding or cutting of my wheel studs and that proved to be true. I liked the look of the first set up but my plan is to go with 285/75 18 tires which will increase my poke by about .25" so I wanted to bring the wheel in that additional .25" so I can get the natural poke from the bigger tires.

I have attached a couple images of what it looks like with the stock rebel tires and the .75" and 1" rear.
Do you have any pics with the 1” & 1.25” setup?

did you have the level/lift install after or before the spacers? curious if the coyote 1.5" would fit all around without a level. My rebel is still on stock suspension arrangement, but I'd like to add these. any idea?
thanks,
I just installed 1.5" wheel spacers on stock suspension. Had to trim the front husky mud flaps I have on the truck, but nothing else.

Just installed Venum 1.5" spacers all around and my instructions read same, but I did not feel comfortable torquing either spacer to hub nor wheel to spacer at that low of a torque, so did 130 for both all around. Venum uses same high grade aluminum and studs so I think they can withstand 130 torque...The leader apparently is BORA and since they say 130 for both I'm going with that...Anyway not only is stance improved, but I love the increased planted ride, particularly on 3.5" lift.

Has anyone put wheel spacers(specifically hub centric bored) their 2019 RAM? I'm looking to widen the track but I'm not in the market to get new Wheels and Tires yet. I don't want them to extend out past the fender well but about an inch to an inch and a half. If you have, please tell me what size and and bolt length you got. Thanks
Here are a set of 2" spacers installed on 2021 Laramie. This angle helps see the alignment with the fender moldings. I am really pleased with this look as I wanted a more aggressive stance with the factory wheels.

Michael Valdez yes my friend these work with the 2019 ram Laramie/Longhorn/Bighorn . They have the same dimensions as the Chevy Silverado and Tahoe's do. Always look for these specs: 6x5.5 or 6x139.7mm bolt pattern, thread or Stud at 14x1.5, and center bore at 78.1mm. Those are the exact specs for the 2019 Ram 1500 for wheel Spacers. Enjoy!!!
Actually they're not...The Ram has a center bore of 77.8 not 78.1...They may work, but they aren't the correct fit.

hi!


I just bought 2" coyote spacers SKU#6550-6550H-E.


There is debate online about the fitment of these on RAM trucks:

Your site lists the following:

but according to many in the forum, and at wheel-size.com, it says 77.8 Center Bore:

Ram 1500 2020 5.7i​


– Generation: V [2019 .. 2022] [USDM]

– Wheel Fasteners: Lug nuts

– Thread Size: M14 x 1.5

– Trim Production: [2019 .. 2021]





so the question is - does these fit the RAM?

or not?



Thanks for your help!

Yeah, I went back and did the same. I had Bora on my 2500. I liked dealing with the company. I ended up adding hub centric rings also for my Fuel wheels. With the rings, spacers, and tires i have now, everything rides so much better. more stable.

I did the 6550-6550H-E14 coyote spacers on my 2019 Rebel. They worked perfect. No slop, they seem to fit perfect. If you have aftermarket wheels, be sure to get some hubcentric rings also. Really helps.

Just ordered Bora 1.5” for my 2020 Rebel with stock wheels/tires. Hopefully the wait isn’t too long.
