Just curious if anyone knew wat size wheel spacers it would take to get the rear wheels to be even with the front. just trying to give it a little wider stance in the rear, thanks for your time
 
Should be 1.5" spacers. I'm running 3" spacers on the rear and 1.5" spacers on the front with hmmwv wheels. The front and back are the same width.
 
I did 1.5 on my burb to bring them out and it was perfect. I also did a 3" lift if you wanna get an idea what itll look like. link in my sig \/
 
also wheel spacers in rear will make your vehicle turn wider . . .

the rear is narrow for a reason if this matters to you . :thumb:
 
I have an 89 GMC Jimmy with a 4" lift, 35's, dana 60, 14BFF, and bushwacker cutout flares. I used wheel adapters from wheeladapters.com. I used a 2.5 in the front and a 3" in the rear. Now my tires are even with the outside of my flares. It does turn wider but I like the look and the wider footprint. It also allows me to run 15" rims without having to grind my calipers.
make sure you use red loctite and torque them down to 125lbs.
The other thing to be wary of, is that it is not DOT compliant IF you have to do a vehicle inspection.
