Did they have to cut your studs or did the excess fit in the wheel recess?Installed 1.25” BORA spacers after the 1.75” ReadyLift leveling kit w/ UCA replacements. Wanted to stay with the factory 18” wheels also. Had to trim a bit but stuffed some LT295/70R18 Nitto Recon Grapplers afterwards. Very pleased with the end result.
*Leveling kit, spacers & tires were professionally installed at the same location*
I am curious who had to trim their factory lugs?Did they have to cut your studs or did the excess fit in the wheel recess?
The factory wheels have a concave backside to the spokes, so you do NOT have to trim the studs with a 1.5” spacer. (Even though the studs are slightly longer than 1.5”)I am curious who had to trim their factory lugs?
Did you have to do anything special to get them installed? Were the stock studs long enough?3/8 Bora spacers on mine, needed them to clear the ball joint. No issues.
What about for the 1.25" spacers?The factory wheels have a concave backside to the spokes, so you do NOT have to trim the studs with a 1.5” spacer. (Even though the studs are slightly longer than 1.5”)
I don’t really know… I put them on almost immediately after purchase. My driving is about 90% highway, and I get about 26mpg (3.0L Duramax)Did the 1.5 spacers affect fuel mileage at all?…just thinking about the extra weight added to each corner.
From eyeballing it, I’d be worried about a 1.25” spacer and stock wheels… I think you’d need to trim the factory studs, but I haven’t measured to be sure. This is just my perception from installing my 1.5” spacers.What about for the 1.25" spacers?
Go with 1.5" if you don't want to trim the factory studs. I put 1.25" studs on my 2021 AT4 HD and had to trim about 1/4" - 3/8" off the factory studs for the wheels to seat correctly. BORA spacers have served me well over the years.Has anyone added wheel spacers to a 2024 AT4X AEV 2500?
