I ran 3” spacers on my last rig, it had 37’s and I had them in for about oh 100k. Before that, we had smaller spacers with 35’s for about 400k. Zero issues
I'm not familiar with 'em, there are a ton of different brands out there. I try to balance the stated materials and design of the product vs the reviews available to make a decision. Do take reviews with a grain of salt, but if there's nothing but negatives, that's a sign to stay away. With a product like this, there's always going to be some, but you never really know the whole story: installation, application, etc.
Will these breaks cause problems in the future? Can I speed up on it without problems and travel on it? Did it affect the comfort of the suspension system or as it is not changed?
Thank you for your response, my friend. I bought these spacers to use them all the time and I do not intend to remove them. Is there a problem? This is the link to the spacers I purchased the specifications and everything from Amazon Richeer 6x5.5 Wheel Spacer for Sierra Silverado Avalanche 1500 Tahoe Escalade Express Savana Yukon, 4 PCS 2 Inch Hub Centric 6x139.7mm Wheel Spacers with 14x1.5 Studs & 78.1mm Bore a.co/d/gsBuPvX
The specs look good, they're hub-centric and looks like decent reviews. Give 'em a shot! Do keep in mind that they will have to come off when brake rotors are replaced, otherwise your plan of never removing them is fine. Don't forget to check torque regularly, like when rotating tires.
@@OverlandAdventureTimes Yes, this is what I will do exactly by checking every now and then on the torque of these spacers, but the torque of my car tires is 140 foot-pounds, but the torque for these spacers is 140 lbf.ft also or only 95 lbf.ft
Your spacer should come with what the manufacturer recommends. Mine said 85-95 lb-ft for the spacer. Their spec was based on the lug stud size. It's going to differ from your wheels because of different materials, etc. I've heard of people over-torquing spacers thinking higher was better no matter what, and cracking the spacer. I've re-checked mine once already, and all was good so far.

What materials were they made of? I was very skeptical of putting some on my truck because of breakage on the trails
@@sk.stuart2702 Mine were aluminum. If I were to do it again I’d run the Bora brand. They seem as tough as you can get
@@ChambersFamilyOverland thanks man 😌
I bought a 2 inch size for my 2003 Denali from Richeer instead of KSP. What do you think of these spacers from this company?

As long as it's a decent quality part and installed correctly, you shouldn't really notice any difference.
