Wheel spacers

[mybabyk5]

hey have you guys ever found some wheel spacers to give a 87 k5 a wider stance without wider tires? If so where can you get them?

Dont use them!! a previous owner had them on the rear of my 89 k5. they worked their way loose and the driverside sheered the wheel studs off. the tire, 35x12.5x15, came off and buckled the rear quarter. it was actually because of this i got a good deal on the truck. I researched them on other forums and found nothing but horror stories.

i've been rocking a pair of these for almost 4 years on the rear of my 94 K1500 without a single issue.

Even the cheap ones work fine and don't come loose. Failure is usually due to installation error.
