Just ordered the Spidertrax spacers today to install on my 2016 Sport. Anyone ever had any problems with them.
 
Why is 1.25” such a popular size for spacers? Would 2” just look silly? I only have 285/75/16s and about 2” lift

1.25” is more than enough to clear the UCA when running 285’s. 2” would be to much IMO.

Well. I use to have 1” spacers non hubcentric all around and looked awesome but had a bad wobble around 50-60 mph. That was my last Tacoma I had, that being said I still love that look and every1 has guided me to get hubcentrics and that will fix my wobbling issue so they say ‍♂️. Haven’t tried them on my newer Tacoma tho.
 
So I’ve been noticing some wheel traction loss or tire spin like feel when I accelerate faster than normal. I know what tire chirping feels like and it feels nothing like. Do you think it could be my wheel spacers? I need to just find some rims that fit the car better than these stock ones.

Have you checked/ re-torqued everything lately? If everything is tight, that's not your problem. I, personally refuse to use them but some people never have a problem with them. Maintenance is key on those things.

No idea what you could be feeling, that's a strange sensation. Can you even check the tranny fluid on that truck? No idea. Worth a shot.
 
Definately use hub centric. Wheel spacers have been around a long time, even used in racing and Nascar. They do require maintenance. I check the torque specs every tire rotation.

I have but....I guess it wouldn’t hurt to re check them again. It almost feels like my tires are spinning and my wheels are locked in space for had a second or so, maybe I’m just feeling the transmission shift:confused:
