How big if a spacer would I need for 35's on stock rim ? Or should i just hold on to my 32's and save for backspacing rims...

I'm using the same 1.5" spacers with the stock 17" Moab wheels. I'm running 35x12.50x17" Nitto EXO Grapplers.




I do get some rubbing on my lower control arms in the front. I haven't my steering stops because I'm planning on replacing the rims in the near future.

Question - can you see the spacers from behind the wheels?

I can't and I run the newer style Rubicon wheels. You might be able to depending on your wheels, but I doubt it

Unless you're looking for them, no one will notice. Maybe Jeepers will notice, but we only care that you're wheeling.

Pretty sure the 1.75" are only in blue. Black is offered in 1.5. My brother has his painted though so they can't be seen. They look great black or blue.
