Re: Wheel sizes and hub spacers for '73-'87 P/U
How much space do you need?
I've seen spacers in two styles. One is thin, and you mount the wheel and lug nuts to the existing lugs, but you're limited by lug nut length. Max thickness is about 1/2 inch, quite possibly less.
The other style of spacer is much thicker. You mount the spacer to the lugs, and then the spacer itself has a DIFFERENT set of lugs that you mount the wheel to. Because you must clear the existing lugs, minimum spacer thickness is about two inches.
However, neither of these options like to handle lots of load. Personally, I wouldn't go this route.
