1” Wheel spacers?

[Wakesurfboy]

I changed my mind over suspension lift because of the price involved and the need to do an alignment.
Since I cannot get the ICON wheels with 40mm offset, should I use 1” spacers?

The offset on my stock wheels is 70mm so with spacers it will be 45mm.
I’m guessing the result will be very similar, yes or no?

35” K03 on stock tiny wheels, no lift!

Just want to share my experience with others in case you are in the same situation as me. The wheels I wanted are back ordered until spring (ICON with 40mm offset) so I decided to go with the stock 18” x 7” wheels with 70mm offset. I choose the K03 285/75R18 instead of the 285/70R18 because...

You can get some JDM Bradley wheels with LC specific +40 offset now showing in stock at Showstoppers USA: 4x4 Engineering Bradley V Wheels 18x8.5 +40 6x139 Hyper Black - Showstoppers USA Showstoppers USA

Why spacers on Ebay "hubcentric wheel spacer 6x 139.7 95.1” show fit for the 2024 Tacoma and not for 2024 Landcruiser?

Many people got aftermarket wheels with +40mm or +35 offset for larger tires and wider stand.
If we want to keep OEM 18” wheels, and want to have same purpose above, 1” spacer is good option to me (as long as it is quality spacer/made in USA)
I may go with this option because I like the OEM looks with heritage Toyota branding/logo

Upper control arm rubbing fixed. Tires still inside the fender and great look. Little rubbing in the fender plastic but no big deal.

I recommend the 1” spacer from Spidertrax, made in USA and very well made.

With these spacers, the OEM 1958 wheels at 70mm offset are now equivalent to a 45mm wheel offset.

Looks great with the wider stand. 1” wheel spacer is the best option if people wants to keep the OEM wheel.
What is tire size in the photo?

Need to flex it out some and see how it really does.

ICON wheels with 40mm offset on Youtube did that.

ICON wheels with 40mm offset on Youtube did that.

+40mm is the sweet spot

I've seen the link before but didn't pay it any mind. Figured they were pretending to have info just to sell me wheels.

1” spacers are added to convert +65mm to +40mm offset. Keep the OEM wheels (I like them) and now tires are all perfectly pushed out to flush with fenders to have better/wider stand.
The “blue” spacers match the “blue” king shocks

What size tires did you have installed that caused a rub on the upper control arm? I am having 275/70r18 installed this Saturday on my 1958 and curious if I should pick up spacers.

I see the spidertrax come in 2 packs and others come in 4 packs. Ignorant here but I assume you do all 4 wheels and not just the 2 front that turn?

275 should be ok. I have 285/75 witch is 1” taller and larger too.

King shocks are awesome! I had them on my 2007 FJ Cruiser and loved them.

2-wheel spacers box. You should do BOTH front and rear even theoretically you only need front. Your LC looks weird with ONLY front spacers . Therefore, you need 2 boxes (4 spacers)

AT 275/70 R18 / OEM 18” wheel is great without any mods.
However, with 1” spacers, you rig will looks rugged / perfect with stand which lined up with fenders / wheel wells
